Following the ongoing e-registration exercise of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti State, the Ado Ekiti APC on Friday, held a stakeholders meeting at the Odo Ado secretariat of the party where some critical resolutions were made to boost the exercise with the aim of turning out huge number of people during the registration process.
Presided by Hon. Michael Akinleye, Ado Ekiti APC Chairman the meeting has in attendance key stakeholders of the party including the SSG, Alhaja Adubiaro, Chief Mrs Tosin Aluko, Commissioner for the Environment, Chief Bode Osaloni, the Executive Chairman of Ado Local Government who graced the occasion amongst representatives from each wards of the Council area.
Akinleye in his opening remark stated that one of the reasons why the meeting took place was to address the basic challenge their officers faced on the field.
According to him, “As the Chairman of the party, I went round on inspection to observe the registration exercise in all the wards and the major complaint of our people on the field is low battery on their phones and that was why we consulted many of our leaders to seek their support and thank God they rose to the occasion as they make provision for the purchase of power banks to each of them for the exercise”.
Speaking further, the party leader said; “The meeting of today was basically on the charge by our leaders to everyone to go back home and mobilise for the e-registration because our aim is to surpass the number of voters from Ado Ekiti ahead of the governorship election.
Speaking in similar vein, the SSG admonished all the attendees to approach the exercise with all the seriousness it takes in order to justifies their membership as APC members noting that the remaining days of the exercise should record a large number of both old and new members.
Chief Tosin Aluko also dropped the hint that members should go extra mile to increase the membership drive by incorporating siblings and family members from far and near including children above 18 years of age to participate in the exercise.
In his submission, Chief Osaloni drew the attention of party members to the sizable number of political office holders of Ado origin noting that a high number of people from the area would make a big statement in the future.
At the end of the stakeholders
engagement, power banks were distributed to the field officers of the party doing the e-registration exercise
