The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has announced a ₦20 million cash prize for the local government area that records the highest number of newly registered voters in the ongoing Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise.
The State Chairman of the party, Pastor Cornelius Ojelabi, made the announcement during the APC Stakeholders’ Forum held in Lagos.
Ojelabi said the initiative was part of the party’s broader strategy to encourage voter participation and ensure that eligible residents across the state register and collect their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) ahead of the next election cycle.
According to him, the APC is fully prepared to support the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in ensuring a smooth registration process. He urged all party members, ward leaders, and grassroots mobilizers to take the CVR exercise seriously by engaging and encouraging residents to register.
In addition to the ₦20 million prize for the best-performing local government, Ojelabi also announced a ₦5 million cash reward for the ward with the highest number of newly registered voters.
“The party has put everything in place for a seamless registration process, and we are calling on all members to go out, mobilize, and ensure people register. We cannot afford to leave anything to chance in mobilizing our people to get their PVCs,” Ojelabi said.
