APC Women Unite As National Stakeholders’ Summit Holds In Abuja

The All Progressives Congress (APC) Women Wing has moved to consolidate its nationwide political structure as women leaders and stakeholders from across Nigeria gather in Abuja for a strategic national summit ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Scheduled for today, the summit is being convened at the instance of the First Lady of Nigeria, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, in collaboration with the APC national women leader, Dr Mary Alile Idele.

The gathering will bring together women leaders, zonal and state coordinators, grassroots mobilisers, party faithful and other stakeholders from the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

At the heart of the summit is the drive to establish greater coordination among women structures nationwide and develop a common approach to grassroots engagement ahead of the next general elections.

The stakeholders are expected to deliberate on strategies to reach women directly within communities, strengthen ward and polling-unit structures, and improve communication among national, zonal, state, and local women leaders.

The meeting will also focus on empowering women economically and socially, while increasing awareness of government interventions and development programmes that benefit families and communities.

Another major priority will be expanding women’s participation in political organisations and ensuring that women remain active contributors to decision-making and democratic development.

As the political landscape gradually shifts towards 2027, the APC Women Wing is positioning its nationwide network as a significant grassroots mobilisation force.

The summit is also expected to strengthen engagement around the Renewed Hope Agenda and encourage women stakeholders to communicate government programmes more effectively within their respective communities.

With the First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu, and APC National Women Leader, Dr Mary Alile Idele, providing leadership to the initiative, the Abuja gathering is expected to deepen unity among women stakeholders and strengthen the party’s grassroots structures nationwide.

The arrival of delegations from across the federation has already begun, signalling the commencement of what stakeholders describe as an important phase in the nationwide coordination of APC women ahead of 2027.
