Members of the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) in Ebonyi State have been warned to be vigilant as the All Progressives Congress (APC) commences its membership registration.
In a statement signed by Barrister Silas Onu, the Publicity Secretary of the party in the state, the PDP said: “It has come to our attention that the All Progressives Congress (APC) will be engaging in membership registration across the nation, including Ebonyi State.
“Ordinarily, we will not dissipate any energy contemplating what the party could achieve in Ebonyi State as we know that they have no members to register here. However, with the recent evidence of signature harvesting that took place in the State High Court premises for the purpose of manufacturing a communique, it has become necessary to warn our teeming supporters, members and well-wishers of the danger of completing any form during this period.
“Subterfuge strategies will.be deployed to conflate and confuse unsuspecting members of the public into unknowingly registering as members of the All Progressives Congress.
“Ebonyians are called on to be careful while completing any form that may be referred to SME application form or any other form that will require the disclosure of personal details and signature.
“This warning became urgent as appointees of the State government are now under pressure to register members at their wards or loose their salaries and other emoluments.
“We reiterate that while parties are free to work towards recruiting membership in their fold, such an exercise must be carried out with sincerity and devoid of compulsion or deception.”
