The inauguration of the All Progressives Congress (APC) chapter in Paris marked a significant step in the party’s international outreach and diaspora engagement strategy. The event was headlined by the APC National Chairman, Dr. Umar Ganduje, whose presence underlined the importance the party places on its global support base.
Also in attendance was the APC National Women Leader, Dr. Mrs. Mary Alile, accompanied by her husband, Hon. Pius Alile, the Deputy Chief of Staff to the Edo State Governor. Their presence further added to the prestige of the event, signaling the growing involvement of both party leadership and state government officials in extending the party’s influence beyond Nigeria’s borders.
Dr. Ganduje, in his address, emphasized unity among party members in the diaspora and encouraged them to remain active participants in national development, even from abroad. He also outlined the party’s goals for global engagement and the critical role of the diaspora in shaping Nigeria’s political future.
Dr. Mrs. Alile delivered a passionate speech advocating for greater women participation in politics and reaffirmed the APC’s commitment to gender inclusion at all levels. Hon. Pius Alile also lent his voice, calling on Nigerian expatriates to remain connected to their roots and take advantage of platforms like this to contribute meaningfully to governance and development back home.
The inauguration served not only as a formal establishment of the APC Paris Chapter but also as a moment of solidarity, inspiration, and future collaboration. It was a well-organized and symbolic event that reflected the party’s growing global vision.
