Aspirant loses $75,000 in cash to thieves at APC headquarters, Abuja, goes berserk

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and political office aspirant (names withheld) has reportedly lost a whopping $75,000 in cash to thieves at the Buhari House, APC National Secretariat, Abuja.

He reportedly lost the money when he went there to purchase his expression of interest and nomination forms for a political office he is vying for.

The incident happened at the main entrance gate to the party secretariat on Blantyre street, Wuse 11, where, largely due to the inability of the security details to control the surging crowd that grounded human and vehicular activities in the vicinity, a number of untoward things happen, including the theft of the politician’s money after the brown envelope containing it as well as his expensive handset, fell off his hand.

An eyewitness said the party chieftain practically went berserk after losing the money and was seen shouting and running helter-skelter without anyone paying any attention to him.

It was gathered that the incident led to the dismantling of tents already arranged for the party officials in charge of the sale of the nomination forms and the officials’ subsequent relocation to the International Conference Centre (ICC) where they continued with the sale of forms.

Meanwhile, the secretariat was a beehive of activities as hundreds of party members aspiring for various positions in the forthcoming 2023 general elections trooped to the secretariat to purchase the party’s nomination forms.

In a related development, APC stakeholders equally stormed the Secretariat on a solidarity visit to the party’s National Chairman, Senator Abdullahi Adamu.

Addressing newsmen, the stakeholders said: “Within the last three weeks, we witnessed a new leadership style that is reforming our great party the APC. We are here to encourage and support the National Chairman Sen Abdullahi Adamu Turakin Keffi to continue with the stiff measures that will make it difficult for unpatriotic party men to continue fraudulent activities that are affecting our party negatively.

“APC is standing strong with the policy of the National Chairman as he always studies an activity before approving such activity. The committee that reviews the management of the party and made submissions has done a great job. We are strongly supporting the decision taken by the party and the subsequent actions. The recent happening in the party is a wakeup call to all APC management.

“We should unite in supporting the party not unity in destruction. As the primary elections are around the corner, we are appealing to the leadership of the party to introduce measures that will make it impossible for unpatriotic party men to manipulate any primary elections.”
