APC is strong-arming members into digital sign-ups. The party in Ekiti State is pushing people to join a nationwide electronic registration drive, framing it as a test of loyalty. The state coordinator, a commissioner named Adesola Adedayo, called the program pivotal for future wins. He told local supervisors to aggressively get people in all 177 wards to sign up daily. The drill requires a voter card and a national ID number, and is meant to document the grassroots base. Adedayo linked the effort directly to helping the governor get re-elected in the upcoming race. He said a healthy party needs a solid membership list, and this helps them see their real support before the next national election.

The state party chairman, Sola Elesin, already registered himself to set an example. He called it a clear show of commitment. The idea is that getting on the digital list makes you a verified member and bolsters internal organization. The push mirrors statements from the Lagos chapter, which called the registration mandatory, not optional. Their spokesperson said it cleans up the membership rolls by removing fake or duplicate entries. That reform aims to stop gatekeeping and impersonation within the party. They argued the party must modernize or become irrelevant, positioning the APC as an open movement. The digital list is supposed to create a fair playing field by accounting for every member.
