Edo State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has commenced e-registration, with a target of one million members at the end of the exercise.
Chairman of the E-Registration Committee, Kabiru Adjoto, who spoke at the unveiling of the Edo quota of the nationwide exercise, expressed the hope that with the cooperation of party members, stakeholders and leaders, the exercise would be successful and that the target would be achieved.
Adjoto, who revealed that the party was setting up an E-Registration Technical Academy in the three senatorial districts to achieve a hitch-free exercise, noted that it would be leadership-driven.
“We are also setting up e-registration Technical Academy in each of the Senatorial District, where fresh agents will be given adequate training throughout the period of the exercise.
“The exercise will be leadership-driven. Party leaders are encouraged to help deepen awareness creation through diverse publicity mechanisms, such as sponsorship of jingles on television and radio as well as banners, which may bear the image of the sponsor,” he said.
He said party leaders were also at liberty to recommend individuals, who they wish to sponsor as ward field agents for the exercise insisting that details of such persons should be forwarded to Edo PDP e-registration Help Desk Centre.
He assured that the party had also “put all modalities in place to ensure that the exercise is all-inclusive to various categories of party members and intending members,” he noted.
On his part, state Chairman of the party, Tony Aziegbemi, urged members and intending members to turn up for the exercise, noting that Governor Godwin Obaseki, being chairman of the exercise at the national level, could not afford to fail.
