ADC begins online membership registration across Nigeria

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has announced the commencement of its free online membership registration and revalidation exercise across Nigeria.

The ADC National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, announced this via a statement issued on Sunday, March 1, 2026.

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

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

He said: “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 ADC spokesman urged members who had registered on the party’s previous platform to also revalidate their membership on the new digital portal.

Abdullahi noted that additional mandatory information is now required to ensure full compliance with the Electoral Act and Independent National Electoral Commissioner (INEC) guidelines.

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 citizens.
