The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has inaugurated the new executive committee of the APC France Chapter in Paris, calling on all diaspora members to rally behind President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s reforms and Renewed Hope Agenda.
The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dr. Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, performed the ceremony in Paris at the weekend, where prominent APC members in Diaspora gathered.
Ganduje emphasised the importance of unity among party members in the diaspora, stressing their role in supporting the administration’s economic transformation efforts.
He acknowledged that while the reforms under President Tinubu may be seen as painful, he added that “they are necessary steps to reposition Nigeria’s economy for sustainable growth.”
In a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary, Edwin Olofu, on Monday in Abuja, the APC Chairman praised the efforts of the diaspora in expanding the party’s base abroad through active recruitment of members and mobilization.
He assured the gathering that the party is committed to working with the National Assembly to realize the long-sought goal of diaspora voting, enabling full political inclusion for Nigerians living abroad.
“We appreciate you for holding the banner of our party, expanding its membership, and supporting President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, especially in light of the critical reforms he is undertaking. There is now more funding for capital development, and both governors and local government chairmen can attest to this,” Ganduje stated.
He also referenced recent party meetings, including those of the National Caucus and the National Executive Committee (NEC), which affirmed overwhelming support for the President’s performance.
“At the end of the NEC meeting, a vote of confidence was passed on President Tinubu because of the progress his administration is making. He is a reformer and has introduced significant changes, especially in the economic sector.”
Ganduje expressed optimism about the APC’s prospects heading into the 2027 elections, pointing to increasing internal stability and the defection of key figures from other political parties.
