Speaking at the National Secretariat of the APC yesterday
October16th, General Muhammadu Buhari who is running for president for the
fourth time, said he felt sorry for himself after buying the APC nomination
form for N27.5million
"It’s a pity I could not influence this amount to be put
down as in the case of ladies and the disable that intend to participate. I
always look left and right in our meetings but I could not read sympathy, so I
kept my trap. But I felt heavily sorry for myself because I don’t want to go
and ask somebody to pay for my nomination forms, because I always try to pay
myself, at least for the nomination. N27 million is a big sum, thankfully I
have personal relationship with the manager of my bank in Kaduna and I told him
that very soon the forms are coming, so, whether I am on red, or green or even
black please honour it otherwise I may lose the nomination."
"I was about to go to Kaduna this morning and I told
the Chairman but he said in that case, you better pick your form and keep a
straight face that means there is no excuse,” Mr. Buhari said.
Responding to Buhari, the APC National Chairman, John Oyegun
said the high price attached to the nomination form was “in order to separate
the men from the boys”.
