The All Progressives Congress (APC) threw its doors wide open for new members after the Caretaker/Extra-Ordinary National Convention Planning Committee received approval from President Muhammadu Buhari to embark on a membership registration/revalidation exercise.

The membership registration and revalidation exercise has however witnessed the ‘signing’ of new members.

According to the National Chairman Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC) Governor Mai Mala Buni, the registration and revalidation exercise is aimed at building new confidence among its members and reassuring them of new hope in the party.

He said the exercise would assist the party to generate a valid, accurate and up to date data on party membership to enhance and support its planning process.

Here are prominent Nigerians who have decamped to the party during the registration process:
