The APC UK Chapter has formally declared its readiness to host the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, during his forthcoming visit to the United Kingdom later this month.
This declaration was made by the Chairman of the Chapter and Chairman of the APC Committee of Diaspora Chairmen, Hon. Tunde Doherty, during the APC UK Focus Meeting held in London with party faithful and supporters of the President.
The Focus Meeting brought together leaders and members of various diaspora support groups, including Renewed Hope Ambassadors, City Boy Movement, Relax Tinubu is Fixing Nigeria, Nigeria Diaspora for Asiwaju NDA, Renewed Hope Media Network, Friends of BAT, Tinubu Support Group and Women Our Voice Our Vote WOVOV – an all-women support group for PBAT. The gathering underscored unity, strategic coordination, and strengthened collaboration under the umbrella of the APC UK Chapter.
Speaking at the meeting, Hon. Doherty reaffirmed the Chapter’s unwavering loyalty to the President and its commitment to mobilising support across the diaspora ahead of the 2027 general elections. He emphasised that the Chapter remains focused on consolidating the gains of the Renewed Hope agenda while promoting Nigeria’s positive image within the international community.
As part of the proceedings, members of the Chapter’s Executive Committee presented stewardship reports. The Treasurer, Hon. Yemi Kolawole, presented the financial statement for the 2025 calendar year, reflecting the Chapter’s commitment to transparency and accountability.
Prince Ayorinde Amoko, Leader of Persons Living with Disabilities (PLWD), alongside his Deputy, Hon. Funmi Adesanya, briefed members on their activities since the last meeting. They highlighted ongoing engagements and collaborative efforts with party stakeholders, including Hon. Bankole at the party Secretariat in Abuja, aimed at strengthening inclusion and participation within the party structure.
The meeting also provided an opportunity to recognise members who have indicated interest in contesting upcoming party primaries. They were formally introduced to members, reinforcing the Chapter’s commitment to internal democracy and fair participation.
The APC UK Chapter described the Focus Meeting as productive and impactful, noting the high level of engagement, unity, and renewed determination among members to continue working tirelessly for the success of President Tinubu and the progress of Nigeria.
