According to the statement, the summits recorded massive turnout of party stakeholders at all levels and they strategised on how to improve membership registration, documentation and delineation at the 176,846 polling units across the country.
“It also reiterated the need for enlistment of credible persons as polling, ward collation, local government and state collation agents, and the need for timely submission of their records to the national secretariat for onward submission to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
“Another important issue discussed had to do with the correct recording of members’ details in polling units’ membership registers to be collated by states according to wards and local governments and submitted to the national secretariat,” Ishaq noted in the statement.
He added that states would ratify members into vacant and inactive state executive committee offices in line with the circular on sharing of party offices at congresses.
