ADC opens free online membership registration portal nationwide

By Nefishetu Yakubu

African Democratic Congress (ADC) has announced the commencement of its free online membership registration and revalidation exercise nationwide launched in February.

This is contained in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi,

Abdullahi said the new digital platform available at www.adcregistration.ng is crucial to the party’s presentation for the 2027 general elections as well as its various congresses and conventions.

He stated that manual registration would continue simultaneously across the country.

“The new digital registration platform is designed to enable the party to meet requirements of the new Electoral Act 2026 regarding the digital membership register. Accordingly, only individuals whose membership details are fully captured and verified in the party’s official digital register will be eligible to vote or be voted for in the party’s primaries. Since the launch of the physical and grassroots membership exercise in February, we have recorded strong interests from Nigerians across states and the diaspora. It was designed to remove barriers to entry and ensure that every eligible Nigerian, who wishes to identify with the ADC can do so seamlessly and securely,” the party said.

The spokesman urged members who had registered on the party’s previous platform to also revalidate their membership on the new digital portal.

He noted that additional mandatory information is now required to ensure full compliance with the Electoral Act and INEC guidelines.

He encouraged support groups and associations to take advantage of the window to register.

According to him, ADC would like to emphasise that the exercise is without prejudice to our firm objections to the provisions of the Electoral Act 2026.

He added that the party remained committed to building a modern, inclusive, and citizen-driven political movement capable of delivering a better Nigeria that works for all.
