 KADUNA PDP SAYS N26M SEIZED CASH IS FOR AGENTS' WELFARE 


The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kaduna State said the sum of N25.9 million cash seized from one of its members during Saturday’s by-election was meant for the welfare of 5,000 party agents. And not for vote-buying.


Kaduna PDP chairman, Edward Masha, noted that police officers and DSS operatives arrested one Shehu Aliyu Patangi with N25,963,000 along Turunku Road in Kaduna metropolis.


While the police alleged that the huge cash stack was to induce voters and influence their voting choices, Masha said the money was for the welfare of mobilized party agents.


“Let me make it clear that money was for election logistics,” he said.


“We have 169 polling units. We have party agents, supervisors, and collation officers across the three constituencies. Even if you give them N3,000 each, it is over N30 million.


“That is the reality. To now turn around and say it was for vote-buying is mischievous and an insult to the intelligence of Nigerians.”


By-elections took place in three constituencies in Kaduna — Chikun/Kajuru federal constituency, Basawa state constituency, and Zaria/Kewaye state constituency.
