The Labour Party announces the appointment of Hon. Amb. AJU Elumelu-James as Special Adviser to the National Chairman, Barrister Julius Abure, on Media and Strategic Communication.
This appointment is a well-deserved recognition of her unwavering commitment, strategic insight, and years of selfless service to the Party.
Hon. Elumelu-James has consistently distinguished herself as a disciplined mobilizer, a passionate communicator, and a tireless advocate of the Labour Party’s vision, both at home and across the global diaspora.
She previously served with distinction as Deputy Director, Directorate of Mobilization and Integration (Diaspora), where she successfully coordinated mobilisation efforts in several countries around the world.
Her exemplary performance in that role led to her subsequent appointment as Secretary General, Directorate of International and Diaspora Affairs (DIDA), where she further strengthened the Party’s international presence and engagement.
Since 2023, Hon. Elumelu-James has continued to promote the Labour Party globally through incisive, consistent, and values-driven write-ups, helping to shape narratives, inspire supporters, and amplify the Party’s message of good governance, accountability, and people-centred leadership.
Her new role as Special Adviser on Media and Strategic Communication comes at a critical time and reflects the confidence of the Party’s leadership in her capacity to deepen strategic messaging, strengthen public engagement, and advance the Labour Party’s ideals with clarity and purpose.
The Labour Party congratulates her on this appointment and looks forward to the renewed energy, professionalism, and strategic impact she brings to this all important assignment.
