With the theme “Mobilising Diaspora Expertise and Capital for Nigeria’s Economic Revival,” the two-day event aims to harness the skills, resources, and networks of Nigerians abroad to support economic transformation efforts back home.

According to Bernard Doro, Programme Director and Financial Secretary of APC-UK, the forum will feature an interactive session with APC National Chairman, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, and bring together key stakeholders from government and the private sector.

The forum will spotlight investment opportunities in critical sectors such as infrastructure, agriculture, energy, ICT, manufacturing, housing, and the creative industries. State governors and federal officials are expected to present investment showcases and participate in thematic panel discussions.

A major highlight will be the unveiling of “From Mandate to Reforms: Exploring Tinubu’s Blueprint for Nigeria” by Senator Abu Ibrahim, offering insights into the current administration’s reform agenda.

Other activities include keynote speeches, Q&A sessions with diaspora participants, a gala night featuring cultural performances and networking, and an awards ceremony recognising outstanding diaspora professionals.

The APC said the forum will provide a platform for diaspora investors to engage directly with decision-makers, influence policy, and explore opportunities for hybrid or voluntary relocation of skilled professionals. It also plans to establish a Diaspora Investment and Skills Repatriation Desk at the APC Secretariat.

Participants will include reform-focused state governors, key federal agencies like the Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission, Nigerian Export Promotion Council, and Presidential Enabling Business Environment Council, as well as private sector leaders and APC-aligned professionals from the diaspora.

The event is expected to generate investment commitments and position the APC as a catalyst for Nigeria’s economic revival through diaspora engagement.
