Yekini Nabena, a former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has revealed how the party plans to use the money raised from the sale of presidential expression of interest and nomination forms.

The APC chairman told reporters that, unlike the Peoples Democratic Party, the APC will not utilize government funds to operate its operations.

Contrary to popular belief, Nabena stated that the N100 million spent on APC nomination forms will not increase corruption.

According to Nabena: “You should understand that corruption is not measured by that, even those that have some money like N5, 000 and N10, 000 are even more corrupt, you understand; you can’t measure N100 million as if it’s corruption.

“Even the smaller people like the civil servants with a salary of N40, 000 are even more corrupt than the wealthy people; you can’t use that as a measurement for corruption.

“Running a political party is not rice and beans; we can’t go to the government to demand money, so we use the money from the forms to run the party.

“The adverts we do in the media daily, do you know how much it costs us? So where do you think we get the money from? How do we sustain the party? So, we can’t measure corruption based on what people are saying.

“Don’t look at it from that point; if you are looking for corrupt people, you should go to the civil service, where you will see the corrupt elements. What about people who can’t pay such an amount and are given appointments and they are corrupt? If you are born a witch, you are a witch; if you are wicked, it will be in you. So, we should not use this N100 million to describe anybody as corrupt.

“Some of them have not participated or contributed since 2014 till now; look at Bakare, has he contributed or participated in the party? Has he contributed in any way to the party? And now he wants to be the party’s flagbearer; you people should also look at this from a different point.

“The money we are returning to the people, the adverts we are running, where do you think we get the money from? Do you think we are like PDP that will dip our hands into the government’s purse? This is the difference between PDP and APC; we return the money to the people,” he claimed.
