Adblg0610:
The real crux of the ADC’s frustration is the additional requirement that they must also provide the NIN numbers of their members, which makes compliance almost impossible.
Their problem is not how to get digital registers because of their initial intention to use COPY AND PASTE from old membership registers.
The real problem is that they must provide the NIN of their members.

Why don't they start now using ordinary Excel instead of wailing up and down ? In the next two weeks, they must have got the register needed to be submitted to INEC

Party shouting for e transmission of results does not have digital register and says it is not possible to meet up while you still have 60 days....haba ADC

They say it's not possible for them to have digitalised membership, register. How?

It's possible.

These are the same people asking for real transmission of election results.

Ordinary members register they are crying about.

https://x.com/KunleAyuba/status/2027477383171768664

It has been in the electoral act since 2022 that you must have digital register

It is very clear, when INEC released its timetable, that some of the requirements we will need to meet to be able to field candidates for the 2027 election, as contained in the Electoral Act, are almost impossible for us to meet. What the law expects us to do is that within the next 32 days or so, we will have a digitalised membership register in all the 36 states of the federation that we will be able to submit to INEC while giving them notice of our congresses or convention.

It is almost practically impossible for us to do this. We know for a fact that the ruling party, APC, commenced membership registration since February 2025 and actually hired consultants to help them develop a digital membership register ahead of the 2027 election. What took them more than one year to do is what they expect us to do within one month.

PRESIDENT TINUBU ACCEPTS EGBETOKUN’S RESIGNATION AS INSPECTOR-GENERAL OF POLICE, APPOINTS TUNJI DISU IN ACTING CAPACITY

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, has accepted the resignation of the Inspector-General of Police, Mr Kayode Egbetokun, following the submission of his letter citing pressing family considerations.

President Tinubu received Mr Egbetokun's resignation earlier today and expressed his profound appreciation for Egbetokun's decades of distinguished service to the Nigeria Police Force and the nation. The President acknowledged his dedication, professionalism, and steadfast commitment to strengthening internal security architecture during his tenure.

Appointed in June 2023, Egbetokun was serving a four-year term scheduled to conclude in June 2027, in line with the amended provisions of the Police Act.

In view of the current security challenges confronting the nation, and acting in accordance with extant laws and legal guidance, President Tinubu has approved the appointment of Assistant Inspector-General of Police Tunji Disu to serve as Acting Inspector-General of Police with immediate effect.

The President is confident that AIG Disu’s experience, operational depth, and demonstrated leadership capacity will provide steady and focused direction for the Nigeria Police Force during this critical period.

In compliance with the provisions of the Police Act 2020, President Tinubu will convene a meeting of the Nigeria Police Council shortly to formally consider the appointment of AIG Disu as substantive Inspector-General of Police, after which his name will be transmitted to the Senate for confirmation.

The President reiterates his administration’s unwavering commitment to enhancing national security, strengthening institutional capacity, and ensuring that the Nigeria Police Force remains professional, accountable, and fully equipped to discharge its constitutional responsibilities.

Kogi Youths Donate ₦100 Million for President Tinubu’s APC Nomination Form

Youths from Kogi State have donated the sum of ₦100 million in support of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as a show of confidence in his leadership and in anticipation of the 2027 general elections.

The donation was formally presented during a visit to the National Headquarters of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Abuja, with the delegation led by the Governor of Kogi State, Ahmed Usman Ododo.

The delegation was received by the National Chairman of the APC, Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda, at a brief but symbolic ceremony at the party’s secretariat.

Speaking at the event, Governor Ododo described the donation as a powerful expression of grassroots support for President Tinubu, particularly among young Nigerians.

He noted that the gesture reflects the confidence of Kogi youths in the President’s vision and reform agenda.
“This contribution by our youths clearly demonstrates their belief in President Tinubu’s leadership and their readiness to support him for another term,” Governor Ododo said. “It sends a strong message that the people of Kogi State stand firmly with him.”

In his remarks, the APC National Chairman commended the youths for what he described as a patriotic and voluntary act. He said the donation underscores the growing political consciousness and engagement of young Nigerians, adding that such support is reassuring for the party’s future.

He further remarked that, with this gesture, there would be no need for further donations toward the President’s nomination form.

The ₦100 million donation is earmarked specifically for the purchase of the APC presidential nomination form ahead of the 2027 elections.

Representatives of the Kogi youths explained that the funds were mobilised through community-based contributions and fundraising efforts, driven by widespread enthusiasm for the President’s reforms in infrastructure development, security, and economic growth.

The APC leadership expressed appreciation for the gesture and reaffirmed the party’s commitment to inclusive governance and youth participation in national development.

FCT Polls: A Clear Endorsement of President Tinubu’s Reforms — APC National Chairman

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Professor entawe Goshwe Yilwatda, has described the outcome of the weekend elections in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Kano and Rivers States as a resounding endorsement of the ongoing reforms and governance direction of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

In a statement issued on Sunday by Abimbola Tooki, Special Adviser to the National Chairman of APC, Yilwatda said the overwhelming support recorded by the party, particularly in the nation’s capital, reflects the confidence of Nigerians in the Renewed Hope Agenda and their belief that the current reforms will ultimately lead the country to its desired destination.

“I heartily congratulate our teeming supporters of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the Federal Capital Territory, Kano, and Rivers States on the successful, peaceful and credible conduct of the Saturday, 21st February 2026 polls. The victories recorded by our great party are a clear testament to the resilience, unity and grassroots strength of the APC,” the statement read.

According to the Chairman, the outcome of the FCT Area Council elections carries special national significance.

“The Abuja election, in particular, is a powerful statement by Nigerians from all walks of life that they stand firmly with President Tinubu and his bold reform agenda. As residents of the nation’s capital, their verdict sends a strong message of widespread support, renewed hope and confidence in the ability of this administration to reposition Nigeria for sustainable growth and prosperity.”

He congratulated the five APC Chairmanship candidates who emerged victorious in the Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC), Kuje, Abaji, Bwari and Kwali, noting that their victories underscore the party’s deep connection with the people.

He also congratulated the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Chairmanship candidate who won in Gwagwalada, describing the outcome as proof that democracy has prevailed and the will of the people respected.

The APC Chairman further congratulated the party’s four State House of Assembly candidates who secured victory in Kano and Rivers States, describing their success as a reflection of effective party organisation and public trust in APC leadership.

He commended party leaders, stakeholders and supporters across the three states for their discipline, dedication and commitment to peaceful participation in the democratic process, while also acknowledging the professionalism of security agencies and election officials.

“As we celebrate these victories, we must remain united, focused and committed to delivering good governance at all levels. The message from the people is clear: they want results, accountability and continued reforms in line with the Renewed Hope Agenda. The APC will not disappoint,” the statement concluded.

Signed

Tinubu gave us first minister in years, gave our youth massive opportunities, gave our villages projects and you say make we vote who give us outsiders as candidates?
Reason am.

Bro visit Rubochi, in years we've never had a single electric pole there, but Tinubu came in and commissioned a solar project for us.
About 80% of houses now enjoy 20hours free electricity.
Funny enough the current chairman is PDP.
But he's been sent home with his candidate.

This is just one of many ooo..
The road projects you see in the urban areas didn't stop there, even the rural areas enjoyed the benefits..
I didn't even talk about how much the youths have been involved too.
I'm telling you the presidency would be a bigger shock.

The coalition is fake. I did not resign from my Labour Party. We will stay in Labour Party and create a good structure with like-minded people rather than waste my time with a coalition of fake people. A whole party gave up their party candidates just to prove a point to Mr. Peter Obi and Obidients. No, This is not politics; it's madness. A coalition that cannot zone its ticket to the South to help heal the country and forge forward to confront APC and its rigging system. Saving a country cannot be done with unserious people.

Nigerians asked for the electronic transmission of election results from polling units to be made mandatory. The Tinubu-led APC regime said no, citing insecurity in nine states, a national grid shutdown, and network issues. Yet here they are, setting up situation rooms with internet access to collate what exactly?

Obviously, to generate fake results and spread them around to create confusion.
