A delegate at the ongoing All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential primaries in Lagos has raised alarm over what he referred to as “dollarization” by one of the heavy contender, Atiku Abubakar.
NAIJA CENTER NEWS had earlier reported that Gen. Muhammadu Buhari is afraid of Atiku’s resource power and his ability to buy everyone over during the election.
Over the weeks, Atiku had taken to twitter to preach change, saying he is the only one who is fit to rule Nigeria with the necessary change it deserves
According to the delegate, Bola Ilorin, he said Atiku is sharing $2000 to $5000 dollars to delegates, adding that whoever is is sharing such money and those receiving it do not believe in the kind of change Nigeria want.
He said “Crazy things are happening here!!! Some of these can not represent the change Nigeria is yearning for. Excessive dollarization by one of the aspirants is to say the least obscene.
I have been involved in political process for decades now, I have never witnessed this volume of raw dollarization of party primaries. I only read about this kind of things in PDP primaries. A question been asked by conscientious delegates is that whoever can be giving out between $2000 to $5000 to each delegate certainly does not represent the kind of change Nigerians want.
Those who contributed to the pauperization of the country now revel in dollarization, Oma se o! If this is what is called internal democracy then I guess it’s not the best for Nigerian situation yet.
In any case I’m happy that majority of Ondo State delegates (reduced from 85% to 70% within 24 hours) are still standing firm with Buhari as Omoluabis, the remaining has gone with dollars o!”
