2027: APC Giving Assembly, Reps Candidates ₦50 Million, ₦200 Million, Cars To Forfeit Tickets – Galadima

Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) chieftain, Buba Galadima, has alleged that the All Progressives Congress (APC), is bribing lawmakers at the federal and the state levels with ₦50 million, ₦200 million to forfeit their tickets.

Naija News reports that Galadima made the allegation on Tuesday while fielding questions during an interview on Arise Television’s Prime Time programme.

Galadima also alleged that a woman in Zamfara State was seen sharing money in Abuja with candidates who agreed to forfeit their tickets in favour of APC candidates.

According to Galadima, candidates who forfeited their tickets wrote resignation letters before collecting the money.

He said, “We are only 100 days away from the general elections. Like every politician, except those in power, [we] are watching their backs because, as I speak to you, I don’t think there is any candidate outside the APC who is sure of contesting this election.

“Every member of the House of Assembly who agrees to forfeit his ticket for the APC candidate is currently being given N50 million, and members of the House of Representatives will be given N200 million with a car.

“There’s a lady from Zamfara State who is sharing the money in a hotel here in Abuja.

“In fact, she just held a meeting about four days ago with the APC National Chairman, Professor Nentawe Yilwatda, showing some candidates who have forfeited their right to contest the election. They wrote resignation letters and collected the money.”
