APC revalidation: Benue NASS Caucus expresses confidence in process

The Benue State caucus of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the National Assembly has expressed confidence in the ongoing e-registration and revalidation exercise being carried out by the party across the state.

Speaking to journalists in Makurdi after inspecting registration materials and logistics, the spokesperson of the caucus, Philip Agbese, said the exercise was progressing smoothly and would strengthen the party’s structure at the grassroots.

Agbese, who represents Ado/Okpokwu/Ogbadibo Federal Constituency, noted that the participation of various party blocs in the exercise would significantly expand APC’s membership base in Benue State.

He said the group led by the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Senator George Akume, had been fully mobilised to take part in the revalidation process, describing the development as a boost to the party’s internal consolidation efforts.

According to him, the e-registration exercise provides an opportunity for the party to update its membership records and reposition itself ahead of future electoral contests.

Agbese called on APC members across the state to cooperate with party officials conducting the exercise in their respective local government areas, stressing the need for unity and participation.

He added that the caucus would continue to monitor the exercise to ensure it was properly implemented in line with party guidelines.

“We are coming with serious business,” Agbese stated firmly. “The Akume group alone has over half a million dedicated members who are already verified and eager to be captured in this exercise.

“Within the next seven days, we will upload every one of them. That single move will increase our APC membership in Benue by at least 500,000.

“And mark my words, we are targeting an extra 1 million votes for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the next election cycle.

“After one solid month of effort, the other side has only managed about 30,000 registrations. That’s the difference between real grassroots mobilization and mere noise.

“Our people are on the ground, they understand the stakes, and they are responding in large numbers. This e-registration is our chance to reclaim and strengthen the party from the roots.”
