President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and Leader of the governing All Progressives Congress (APC) in the country, Muhammadu Buhari, has flagged off the much publicised fresh registration and revalidation exercise intended to get members and loyalists of the party recommitted to its programmes and government policies.
This was according to a post by Digital and Social Media Aide to the President, Lauretta Onochie, who said precisely via a short post on Facebook that the President had revalidated his membership status of the party.
“President Muhammadu Buhari revalidates his Membership status of the All Progressives Congress at Daura, Katsina State on 30th Jan 2021,” she said.
President Buhari, in a Presidency statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity Mallam Garba Shehu, arrived his country home of Daura, Katsina State on a four-day official visit Friday during which he would participate in the APC fresh registration and revalidation exercise, the first stage of which is expected to last for two weeks.
After the flag-off, existing and fresh members of the party will be required to participate in the exercise at the 120,000 polling units across the country.
The flag-off ceremony was attended by top officials and members of the party including the Senate President, Mr. Ahmed Lawan, former Senate President Ken Nnamani, Governor of Katsina State, Alhaji Bello Masari.
