PDP, APC primaries: Dollar, Naira rain for delegates


National Chairman, APC, John  Oyegun  and National Chairman, PDP, Adamu Mu’azu

The delegates that participated in the just concluded primaries of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party and the opposition All Progressives Congress across the country have been laughing to the bank following the huge amount of money some aspirants reportedly paid to them.

Saturday PUNCH learnt that the aspirants sent some of the money to the delegates through the leaders of their parties.

It was learnt that apart from the money, incentives such as promise of automatic employment, among others, were also deployed in wooing the delegates.

Some delegates who spoke to our correspondents confirmed that they were given money by some aspirants who needed their votes. However, the delegates pleaded anonymity for fear of reprisal from their party leaders.
