“All the officials that would register our prospective members have been trained from local government to the unit level and with the distribution of materials which we are doing here today, I can assure you that the membership registration and revalidation proper will commence tomorrow (Wednesday), by the special grace of God.
“I must state here that this particular exercise will be conducted in such a way that all interested persons will be accommodated as no one will be left behind. All segments of the society, including people with disabilities, will be registered during this exercise.
“All captured data will be uploaded on the APC website and each registrant will be given a unique number.
