AH Diaspora, 2025
The Association of Diaspora Political Parties Members (ADPPM) extends its heartfelt congratulations to Alhaji Yusuf M. Dantalle, former presidential candidate of the Allied People’s Movement (APM), on his reelection as Chairman of the Inter-Party Advisory Council of Nigeria (IPAC) for a second term. This achievement, ADPPM notes, is a testament to his exceptional leadership, dedication to democratic ideals, and unwavering commitment to promoting inclusive governance across Nigeria’s political landscape.
In a joint statement, Hon. Kenneth Gbandi (ADC-DN) and Adetunji Anthony Adeleke (PDP-Diaspora) applauded Alhaji Dantalle’s consistent efforts in fostering cross-party collaboration and constructive dialogue among Nigeria’s diverse political actors. His visionary approach has strengthened IPAC’s role as a key advisory and coordinating body in the country’s democratic process, ensuring that the voices of all political parties, including diaspora-based actors, are recognized and integrated into national development agendas.
ADPPM highlighted that Alhaji Dantalle’s extensive political experience, including his historic presidential candidacy, positions him uniquely to inspire confidence and trust among stakeholders in Nigeria’s electoral and governance processes. His leadership has demonstrated the importance of bridging partisan divides and leveraging collective expertise to strengthen democratic institutions. This commitment is particularly significant in an era where participatory governance and transparency are critical for the nation’s social and economic advancement.
The statement further emphasized that under Alhaji Dantalle’s stewardship, IPAC has maintained an open-door posture, embracing collaboration with diaspora organizations and political actors, thereby enhancing the participation of Nigerians abroad in the country’s governance. ADPPM views this inclusive approach as a model for ensuring that the perspectives and contributions of diaspora Nigerians are effectively incorporated into national policy and political discourse.
ADPPM expressed optimism that his continued leadership will deepen the culture of dialogue and cooperation among political parties in Nigeria, further reinforcing democratic values and institutional stability. They noted that his reelection reflects not only the confidence of IPAC members in his capabilities but also recognition of his role as a unifying figure capable of advancing cross-party collaboration for the nation’s collective good.
ADPPM congratulates Alhaji Yusuf M. Dantalle once again and looks forward to exploring opportunities for engagement and collaboration between IPAC and diaspora political actors. His vision and leadership provide a strong foundation for continued democratic growth, inclusive governance, and the active participation of Nigerians both at home and abroad in shaping the nation’s future.
