Barely 48 hours after the National Executive Committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC) dissolved all the party’s structures across the nation, the party has postponed the nationwide membership, update and revalidation excursus scheduled to begin on Saturday, December 12, 2020.
This was announced by the National Secretary of the Caretaker/Extra-Ordinary National Convention Planning Committee, John Akpan UdoUdehe, at the APC National Secretariat, Abuja, on Thursday.
He said the leadership of the party took the decision for several reasons, including “the fast-approaching Christmas and End of Year celebrations”.
“As you are all aware, the Membership Registration, Update and Revalidation Exercise of our Great Party, was supposed to commence on Saturday, December 12, 2020,” he said.
He said, “On account of several factors however, including the fast-approaching Christmas and End of Year celebrations; as well as the interest of our Christian members; and the objective of ensuring maximum participation, the CECPC has decided to shift the date of the Exercise to the second week of January 2021.
“The CECPC sincerely regrets any inconveniences that may arise out of the change in date; but appeals for the understanding of our teeming members and the general public, in the interest of preparing a solid foundation for a successful Exercise.
“The Party wishes you all; as well as members of the public, a peaceful and rewarding Yuletide, and End of Year celebration.”
