I was wondering how to join politics in Nigeria. I have been informed that one needs to register with a political party before you can fully partake in mainstream politics. Basically, I am interested in joining APC - an alliance between former ANPP, CPC and ACN. How can I join the party?

The reason for wanting to join this party is personal and should be respected. Any ideas please?

Go to your village and ask for the nearest office of APC and join at the local level and do some hobnobbing with other members and they'll show you the way. I also intend joining politics but want to wait to see if the political killings will reduce. I won't die because of politics. I can only die for Adaobi

At the grassroot level - in my hometown, the stage is currently occupied by the aged ones, even the youth (after taking ogogoro and Kai Kai) tend to behave abnormally, there is a large incoherent setup at that level. Old men, old thoughts and old mentality have taking over the top echelon at the local level.

Another issue I have is in Adaobi state, in which I hail from, there has been no council polls for over a long time now. In short,politics at that level is gone and buried. I am really confused.

I believe the best place to start is at the grassroot level except you have some connections in Awka. The best way to breakthrough is to have the right sonnections.

The gov-elect Dr. Obiano hails from Aguleri while I am from Umuleri. I hear he is already surrendered by APGA hawks with their long red hats. Accessing him now is very difficult as he is still under the tutelage of Adaobi ... Someone has advised me to participate in GEJ's signature national conference...by making some noise and be noticed. Even at that, I hear that these elders have taken positions already awaiting its formal commencement.

My dear, entry into Nigerian politics can be tough...but I believe that the best bet is to join APC (at its unorganized current state).

That's actually one of the best ways. Go and ask Reuben Abati and the late Spokesperson of NNPC. Another way is to throw your hat into the ring in any election even if you don't intend to win. That way you'll get noticed by the eventual winner. You could even withdraw from the race and endorse the person you think would win.

The next elections in Anambra state is hopefully in 2018. How can one wait that long, I shall be almost 40 yrs then. I am not sure that the youthful energy would even be there to - charge- the system. Just thinking what can one do? Everything is shared...State House of Assembly seats occupied, fed house rep gone, senate rep closed, deputy gov and governor also concluded. How can we expand this politics to be more accomodating?

Besides, one is not ready to do PA (personal assistant to any of these people), keep carrying bags, briefcase, handsets etc or even washing their cars hoping that you can be considered one day. Never ever. What qualification do they have that I do not have? With a postgraduate degree, I can contribute even more than them...I want to contribute and that is why I want to join politics.

Please help me.

You can start by attacking the president, his policies, his expenditures and FG. You can even write an open letter to him.

After that, sit tight at home and APC dons would visit you and promise you a slot in the next general election.

OP, I feel your pain. Am not a politican. Just want to wish you the best in your quest.

The first step is to join a cult not just the party, each party has a cult they will initiate themselves. After that the next is to sacrifice someone you love dearly, usually your mother, or maybe your man hood something you cherish, this way they now know your in and will not reveal all the atrocities. Are you ready for that That is for big position but if your not ready for that you can start by being a boy boy as Commissioner or any LGA tout, from that you can see if your ready to step up and be a killer. Goodluck!
