The New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) has described the APC nomination forms fees for 2023 general elections as outrageous.
This is contained in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Agbo Major, in Abuja on Thursday.
Major said that the fees were unfair, unjust, despicable and insensitive to the plights of Nigerians
He said selling forms to the highest bidder, would encourage godfatherism.
“It will shut out patriotic and resourceful aspirants particularly women, youth and those with disability to continue its infamous recycling of retired and tired party stalwarts with no agenda for a better Nigeria.
He also called on anti-graft agencies of the country to thoroughly investigate the source of income of any person who purchases the party nomination form.
“ This is the only way the nation’s electoral process will be sanitised of money politics that has imposed clueless leaders on the populace.
“The consequence is the lingering political upheavals, insecurity, economic depression, moral decadence, religious disharmony and ethnic division across the country.”
Agbo called on Nigerians to rally support for NNPP in the 2023 general elections.
