APC UK Gets State House Commendation


The UK chapter of the All Progressives Congress has come in for praise from the State House through the Vice President of Nigeria, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, GCON, SAN, for the part it played during the last elections.

APC UK led by Mr Ade Omole dedicated huge resources to ensure that the message of change resonated with Nigerians in the Diaspora and at home in Nigeria.

This was done via a series of initiatives such as the "Make A Call - Make a Change” where Nigerians in the UK were provided with phone cards to call their families back home to vote for change amongst TV adverts and rallies.

The FRN State House letter which highlighted "the successful part the UK team played at the 2015 polls," was sent and personally signed by the Vice President on behalf of the President and the entire party in Nigeria.

His Excellency noted the work done by APC UK and stated that he was very "grateful" for it.
Despite the postponement of the election in March, APC UK continued to lead many Nigerians in the Diaspora in the fight for change and the effect of our selfless efforts manifested positively in the election when President Muhammadu Buhari and several APC candidates were duly elected in the April elections.

The national coordinator, Mr Ade Omole, who received the letter on behalf of the executive members of APC UK expressed his "delight at receiving such letter," from the Vice President.
He said: "It’s a massive honour and huge privilege to have been recognised for the work done. We will no doubt continue to support our leaders as they forge ahead with the plan for change."
