Highlighting the integration of the National Identification Number (NIN) into the registration system, Soludo noted: “With NIN integration, as stipulated by the new Electoral Act, we are ensuring the integrity of our membership database. I encourage all APGA members to revalidate their membership and invite new members to join the movement. The registration process has been simplified to ensure no one is left behind.”

The move follows the release of an adjusted timetable by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), covering party primaries and elections for governors, legislators, and the presidency.
