The All Progressives Congress (APC), on Sunday in Abuja, alerted its supporters, members and the general public to a fake membership registration website: apcregistration.com.

In a statement, John Akpanudoedehe, national secretary of APC’s Caretaker and Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC), said the website was fake and unauthorised.

“The website which is circulating on social media is unauthorised and a scam, sponsored by fifth columnists to cause confusion,” he said.

The APC scribe urged relevant security agencies to investigate the website and its sponsors urgently.
