The People's Democratic Party (PDP), yesterday, launched its online registration exercise with President Goodluck Jonathan as the first member to register.

Speaking shortly after registering at his residence in the State House, Mr. Jonathan hailed the party for its creativity.

Intended members are expected to pay the membership fees at a designated bank and thereafter proceed to the party's website to supply personal details and then register.

The exercise was witnessed by the Senate President, David Mark, PDP National Chairman, Okwesilieze Nwodo, the party's National Organising Secretary, Uche Secondus, and Presidential aides.

Mr. Jonathan pointed out the significance of the online membership scheme in harmonizing the membership database of the party at all levels, adding that it will also eliminate controversies that could sometimes trail membership status within the party.

He commended the PDP leadership for the initiative which he described as "the best thing to have happened to party membership registration in Nigeria, in the 21st Century," while emphasizing its accessibility and relevance to existing and prospective party members even in the Diaspora.

The President, however, called on party officials and banks that will facilitate the registration exercise to ensure that they penetrate the rural areas where he said the PDP has most of its membership, so that all party members in all nooks and crannies of the country will be duly registered. He also urged party members at all levels to take advantage of the online registration to properly document their membership of the party.

Earlier, Mr. Nwodo, said the online membership registration drive will give the party an electronic database of its members which can be accessed on the party's website. He said the exercise will also generate funds to run affairs of the party.
