Members of the unions recognised by the Abia State Diaspora Commission. You choose your union when you register, and the committee confirms your membership before issuing your ticket. If you live abroad and belong to no union, use the box on the first step for people in your position: a committee member in your country will need to confirm they know you. If you come in an official capacity (as media, a volunteer or a delegate) you register on the same form, through your union. Guests of honour are invited personally.
Attending is free for you, and nothing is ever paid on this website, at any step. Your first 2 guests are free too. For a guest after that, the fee is handed over at the desk at the venue and recorded there.
Monday 21 December 2026, at 1:00 pm. Venue: International Conference Centre, Umuahia, Abia State. The programme page has the full schedule.
The committee goes through registrations by hand, so allow a few days. You are not emailed when it is done, so come back to the page you registered from, or sign in to your account (we email you a six-digit sign-in code for that), and your ticket will be there.
Open the Register page, tell us how you are coming and which union you belong to, give us a few details, and send it. It takes a few minutes, in a few short steps, and everything on the last step is optional.
Once you are approved, your QR ticket appears in the app on the device you registered on, and in your account when you sign in. It is never emailed. Show the QR code at the entrance: once you have opened your ticket online it works without a signal, and it carries no personal data. If you lose that device, any member of the committee can bring your ticket up for you.
If you need an official invitation letter for travel, tick the box during registration and the committee will issue it once you are approved. We do not collect passport or visa details and we do not process visas.
If you registered through your union, yes: after you register you can add up to 2 guests from your account page. Somebody vouched for by a committee member, or invited by the committee without a union, cannot add guests. Your first 2 guests are free, and the desk records nothing for them. A guest after that is approved after you are, and once the desk has recorded the fee for them, which you hand over at the desk at the venue; nothing is ever paid on this website.
Ask the Abia State Diaspora Commission to recognise it: registration is for members of recognised unions. In the meantime, if you live abroad, you can register without a union: a committee member in your country will need to confirm they know you.
We ask for what a ticket needs, and a few optional questions that help the committee plan (your organisation and profession, how you heard about it, why you are coming, your age range and gender); those are not shown on the approval screen or at the gate. What you eat, an emergency contact and any access needs are kept only if you tick the consent box. We collect nothing about passports or visas. The Privacy Policy says how long everything is kept.
