THE All Peoples Party (APP) has set up a chapter to provide a medium through which every Nigerian in the United Kingdom can be vocal and play an active part in the nation's growth. The All People's Party UK Chapter, according to Mr. Razak Atunwa, was formed in order to enfranchise all Nigerians resident in the UK.

"This is a forum where all the Nigerians can share their goals of making and keeping Nigeria great, so as to advance the democratic, economic and social existence of the country," Atunwa said.

"It has generated a lot of interest at all levels. The current membership cuts across all regions and from all walks of life," he added.

"Membership of the party is free as it is financed by members of the executive, who intend to make valuable and significant contributions not only to the advancement of the party but also to the development of Nigeria as a whole," Atunwa said.

The executive of the All People's Party UK Chapter are: Chairman- Razak Atunwa, Kwara State; Vice Chairman- Nnadozie Okpokiri, Abia State; Secretary- Olajide Lanlehin, Osun State; Treasurer- Ola Agboola, Kwara State; International Liaison Officer- Hakeem Allison, Lagos State; Chief Whip- Adekunle Tijani, Ogun State; and Legal Adviser- Tiki Emezie, Imo State.
