Washington, DC – This is to inform the general public that NIDOA-USA, and Mrs. Patience Ndidi Key, Chairman, NIDOA USA Board of Directors are not in any way associated with “Nigeria National Association, USA”, a newly formed non-for-profit association.

The press release issued by the aforementioned organization, Nigeria National Association, United States of America, dated August 7, 2018 listed Mrs. Patience Key, Chairman, NIDO USA Board of Directors as the Committee Leadership of the proposed association. This is misleading and gave the false impression that Mrs Key has endorsed this project, either in her own capacity or as the Chair of NIDOA USA Board of Directors. Mrs. Key stated unequivocally that she is not a member of Nigeria National Association, United States of America and neither did she authorize her name to be associated with the any project in view. More importantly, she deemed her inferred association with the project as a conflict of interest due to the fact that she is the chairman of NIDOA USA BOD. In other words, she believes it’s unethical to endorse the Credit Union idea without the support and endorsement of NIDOA-USA.

The truth of the matter is that the Credit Union idea was first initiated by NIDOA USA.

The idea of Nigerian Diaspora Credit Union was originally initiated by NIDOA USA and a Summit was held at the Nigerian Embassy in Washington DC in April where a Committee was inaugurated.
I want to reiterate like I have always done for those who do not know that the initiative for this project was borne out of the desire for a cohesive financial agenda and progress for all of Nigerians in diaspora under the Nigeria In Diaspora Organization Americas.(NIDOA) USA by my meeting with Mr. Bayo Idowu, the Immediate past NIDOA-USA representative at the Nigerian embassy and as such my formal introduction of Mr Idowu to Dr Bello a NIDOA-USA Project Director and board member under the NIDOA-USA umbrella, upon which a committee was constituted to discuss and formulate the modalities and policies upon which the project will be executed.
It has become impressed upon that another body has been formed outside the NIDOA-USA mandate for this project for which I have repeatedly and vehemently shown my displeasure.
I would at this time reaffirm my commitment to the NIDOA-USA driven financial institution for all Nigerians in diaspora as an individual and in my capacity as the NIDOA USA chair.
I stand dissociated from NNA USA and any of its intended projects,publications or meetings.
I will however continue to encourage any laudible initiatives for the advancement and progress of all Nigerians as stipulated within the permits of NIDOA-USA constitution.
