A BRIEF HISTORY OF NORTH AMERICA PROVINCE OF THE AVIARY CLUB OF NIGERIA

How a dream, a cancellation, a comeback, and a few stubborn avians built a province.

Every great story has drama, heroes, suspense, confusion, and a happy ending.The history of the North America Province of the Aviary Club of Nigeria (N.A.P.A.C.N) checks every box. Around 2014, some passionate avians across North America started whispering, planning, and forming small meetings.“We can do it.”“We should do it.”“We MUST do it.”Next thing you know, WhatsApp groups were exploding, phone calls were burning, and the idea of forming a North American Province was born. On December 19, 2014, history was made. North America Province of the Aviary Club of Nigeria (N.A.P.A.C.N) and Peach Aviary were first chartered by the Europa Provincial Council President, Olujonwon Ogundimu, a.k.a. Archangel Baba Gundums. Everyone celebrated… for a moment.

Then came Global President Bayo Ali, who looked at the paperwork and said,“Nope unauthorized. Cancel it.” And just like that, the first chartering disappeared like a bird flying away with your grilled fish.Sad day. Emotional day. Phone calls everywhere.But real avians don’t quit.

Exactly one year later, the avians returned stronger. On December 11, 2015, in Atlanta, Georgia, NAPC/Peach Aviary was officially chartered AGAIN this time with all proper authorization, signatures, witnesses, and enough paperwork to make a lawyer sweat.

In attendance were:

Global President: Bayo Ali

Late Ex Global President: Pastor Martins a.k.a Baba Marto

Europa President Gundums

his time, no cancellation.Stamp. Seal. Done. With the birth of the province came its first leaders, the Pioneer Executive Council the ones who turned structure into reality and meetings into progress.They worked, they planned, they organized, they troubleshooted, and they built the foundation.

THE TRAILBLAZERS of NAPC....... After the first executive completed their term, a new administration rolled in.Not by foot.Not by bicycle.They came by TRAIN.

These leaders brought strategy, fun, order, laughter, and transformation.They changed the rhythm of the province:

1. Akin Ejiteme – Provincial President

2. Dr. Sylvester Onoyona – Provincial Vice President

3. Akin Ajayi – Provincial Operations Officer

4. Duby Alfonso – Provincial Secretary General

5. Osamuyi Sorae – Provincial Public Relations Officer

6. Tony Ejiofor – Provincial Treasurer

7. Yinka Taiwo – Provincial Chief of Entertainment

8. Ayo Adesanya (Provincial Chief Security Officer)

9. 
   

Meetings became enjoyable.Events became memorable.Members became family.And the province began to grow wings literally and figuratively. If something was dull, they added life.If something was quiet, they added music.If something was scattered, they brought order.Some say this was the era when NAPC moved from “existing” to THRIVING.

NJ From a cancelled charter, to a successful launch, to a transformational team, NAPC stands today as one of the strongest, most united, most entertaining provinces in the Aviary Club of Nigeria.What started as a small idea is now a living, breathing, laughing, traveling brotherhood.We thank God for the journey.We honor the pioneers for their sacrifice.And we celebrate every avian who makes the flight worth taking.

When avians come together… nothing can stop them.Not paperwork.Not cancellation.Not distance.Not challenges. Today, the North America Province continues to soar, higher, stronger, and happier.

Long live NAPC! !Long live the Aviary Club of Nigeria!
