“After the 2023 elections and with our principal as the president, APC Canada hopes to play a significant role in deepening the existing bilateral relationship between Nigeria and Canada.
“For those who do not know, Canada is a world powerhouse economically. It is a country that nature has been so kind and generous towards. Her people have also utilized those natural resources to an enviable global success.
“Therefore, there is a lot that both countries can share in critical economic areas such as agriculture, extractive resources, engineering, and technology.
“APC Canada was very active in promoting and contributing towards the election of President Muhammadu Buhari in the 2015 and 2019 presidential elections.
“We were actively involved financially by sending funds to the party in Abuja and in utilizing the media to ensure that our presence was felt in the electoral process.

Apart from contributing financially and in materials in this election, we are in the process of setting up a committee that will be dedicated to the debunking of social media misinformation directed at our party and it presidential candidate.
