Just In:
Rep. Sam Onuigbo Inaugurated as President of GLOBE Legislators at UK Parliament
I am delighted to announce that I was formally inaugurated as the President of GLOBE Legislators at the UK Parliament, on Wednesday, June 24, 2026.
It was an important evening which also gave us time to reflect on the impressive work GLOBE has been doing over the past 35 years.
From the inspiring message from our co-founder and former US Vice President, Al Gore; the nostalgic message of encouragement from former President of GLOBE Japan, and currently the Governor of Tokyo, Yuriko Koike; the message of hope and support from the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives Nigeria, His Excellency Rt Hon Benjamin Kalu CFR, PhD; to the charges from Mr Kamal Kishore, Special Representative for the UN Secretary General, UNDRR; Mr Nick Mabey OBE, Founder & Chair, London Climate Action Week; CEO and Co-Founder, E3G; and Mr Pablo Vieira, Head, NDC Partnership, it was a moment reflective of the need for sustained growth.
The charge is simple: we will not let this light dim.
I thank our host, Rt Hon Graham Stuart MP, former UK Minister for Energy Security & Net Zero; my beloved wife, Pastor Dame Princess Chinyere Onuigbo; my friends, family and colleagues who came from far and wide to support me; the entire Members of Parliament from across the world; and development partners who joined us at this momentous occasion.
Rep. Sam Ifeanyi Onuigbo
