Dayo Israel Hails Convention, Unveils Strategy for 2027.
The National Youth Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Dayo Israel, has described the party’s recent National Convention as a resounding success, underscoring its role in strengthening internal unity and positioning the APC for victory in the 2027 general elections.
Israel said the convention demonstrated the party’s organisational strength and readiness, noting that it produced a renewed and credible National Working Committee (NWC).
“The convention reaffirmed the unity of our party and our preparedness for the task ahead,” he said.
Re-elected for a second term, Israel pledged to deepen youth engagement and grassroots mobilisation across the country. He emphasised that the convention coming on the heels of successful ward, local government, state, and zonal congresses has laid a solid foundation for the party’s next phase.
As part of efforts to expand participation, he announced the rollout of a digital mobilisation platform, the SWIP App, designed to connect members at the polling unit level and enhance grassroots coordination. He also revealed plans to relaunch the Jagaban Army Movement 2.0 to drive door-to-door voter engagement ahead of future elections.
Israel noted the growing interest among young Nigerians, particularly Gen Z, in joining the APC, attributing the trend to sustained outreach and youth-focused initiatives.
Also, he expressed confidence in the ongoing reforms under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, citing signs of gradual economic stabilisation and expanded access to youth-oriented programmes, including student loans and consumer credit schemes.
He further reiterated the party’s commitment to inclusivity, highlighting the increasing participation of women in party structures and leadership.
Israel reaffirmed the APC’s resolve to secure victory in 2027 and ensure the re-election of President Tinubu.

DNKI President Champions Humanitarian Service, Sustainable Community Development
Cyril Samania
The President of De Norsemen Kclub International (DNKI), Chief Oliver Patrick Ityohegh, has reaffirmed the organisation’s commitment to humanitarian service, stressing the importance of supporting vulnerable people and improving community welfare beyond the annual celebration of Humanitarian Day.
Ityohegh stated this during the organisation’s Cauldron Night and Award Presentation held to commemorate its 2026 Humanitarian Day celebration, theme: “Humanity First: Advancing Hope, Dignity and Community Well-being.” organised by the DNKI Abuja Chapter.
He emphasised that humanitarian service should be a continuous responsibility driven by compassion, solidarity and a commitment to making a meaningful difference in society.
According to him, DNKI’s humanitarian activities reflect its dedication to giving back to society and supporting people in need, while encouraging members to sustain initiatives that promote human dignity and community well-being.
He added that the organisation would continue to strengthen its humanitarian engagements through practical interventions aimed at improving the lives of vulnerable people and promoting community development.
Speaking at the event, the representative of the Abuja Chapter Chairman and Chairman of its Advisory Council, Prince Efiong Okpe, said the organisation’s humanitarian activities extended beyond the annual celebration of Humanitarian Day on October 15.
Okpe explained that DNKI undertook several initiatives throughout the year, including blood donation exercises, visits to hospitals and correctional centres, as well as support for orphanages and other vulnerable groups.
According to him, the organisation also collaborated with humanitarian bodies in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) to identify areas of need and provide assistance within its available resources.
He described Humanitarian Day as an opportunity for members to renew their commitment to service and demonstrate solidarity with people facing difficult circumstances.
Earlier, the Chairman of the Planning Committee and Coordinator of the DNKI Gwagwalada Zone, Mr Etudaiye Hamzat, disclosed that the chapter had provided financial assistance to some members to help pay their children’s school fees, alongside distributing bags of rice and other relief items to members experiencing hardship.
Hamzat explained that the interventions followed concerns over the difficulties some members faced in meeting their family responsibilities, particularly the rising cost of their children’s education.
He maintained that supporting members in need was consistent with the organisation’s humanitarian principles, adding that DNKI remained committed to extending assistance to non-members and vulnerable communities as part of its commitment to leading by example.
Looking ahead, Hamzat said the Abuja Chapter planned to expand its humanitarian outreach to remote communities within the FCT, with particular attention to orphanages, schools and widows facing difficulties in meeting their family responsibilities.
He also recalled previous interventions for internally displaced persons (IDPs), which included the distribution of food, clothing and educational materials, noting that the chapter intended to scale up such initiatives in the coming year.
The highlight of the event was the presentation of awards to outstanding members and distinguished non-members in recognition of their contributions to humanitarian service.
