The All Progressive Congress has expressed its readiness to do
“everything possible” to comply with the Electoral Act to ensure
registration by the Independent National Electoral Commission
registration for it to become a political party.
Rotimi Fashakin, a member of APC Merger Committee, said this on Friday during an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria in Abuja.
Fashakin promised that APC would increase the number of its national
officers earlier submitted to INEC, to facilitate the registration of
the association.
He further told NAN that the increase was imperative to ensure that
the association complied with the requirement for registration.
Fashakin added that the National Chairman, National Secretary and
National Treasurer of each of the merging parties had signed the final for the registration.
He named ACN, CPC, and ANPP as the parties whose national executives
had signed the document.
“We have been making effort to expand the number to ensure the
enlargement of the committee we earlier submitted to INEC,” he said.
According to him, since the merger committee has just ended its
scheduled assignment, the leadership of the merger parties will now
pursue and ensure the registration of APC.
He said the leaders of the merging parties would iron out the issue of interim national officers as demanded by INEC.
Fashakin added that APC would improve on the social and economic
wellbeing of Nigerians, if registered and it wins the election in
2015.
