Leader of the United Nigerian Americans Council in Maryland, Dr Chris Ademiluyi, has said the organisation focuses on motivating and empowering members to become active participants in the democratic process.

Ademiluyi said the community was created in 2019 to encourage more members of the community to register and vote, and to run for political offices in the United States.

She made this known in a statement made available to Diaspora Tales on Friday while defending Nigerians contesting in political offices.

“Our vision and dedication continue to guide the organisation’s efforts in advocating greater political participation and representation in Maryland.
