The Zamfara State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has issued a clarion call to its members and supporters across all fourteen local government areas, urging them to participate actively in the ongoing digital membership registration exercise. This nationwide initiative, which commenced on Monday, March 2, 2026, follows the approval of the party's National Working Committee and is being conducted in every ward across the federation, including the Federal Capital Territory.
The exercise is of critical importance, driven by the requirements of the Electoral Act 2026. This legislation mandates all political parties to compile and submit a digital register of their members to the Independent National Electoral Commission. The PDP in Zamfara emphasizes that this is not merely an administrative task but a foundational step in strengthening the party's structure and ensuring its readiness for future electoral contests.
To facilitate a smooth process, the party has outlined multiple registration channels. Members of the public are encouraged to register online through the official party portal https://pdpnigeria.org or to visit the nearest PDP office within their ward. The required information for registration includes full name, National Identification Number, date of birth, ward, polling unit code, state, and local government. The party has also deployed ward chairmen and designated registration officers across all wards to assist members, particularly those who may face challenges with the online platform.
In a message resonating with urgency and hope, the state chapter framed the registration as a pivotal act of political mobilization. The call was underscored by a critique of the current administration, which is described as having imposed significant hardships on the populace, leading to widespread frustration. The party leadership expressed optimism, stating that through collective effort and unity, a positive change is attainable. The PDP positions itself as the beacon of hope for the people of Zamfara and Nigeria, uniquely equipped to lead the country toward prosperity and progress.
