The acting National Publicity Secretary of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Mr. Tony Okeke has accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of using money to induce votes during elections.
Okeke said “everybody in Nigeria knows that APC uses money to rig elections” adding that it will be “a very big joke” to accuse the PDP of doing the same.
Okeke further argued that the APC “does not have internal democracy” alleging that they “impose candidates, they never go through the process of primaries”.
He was speaking as a guest on Channels Television’s Sunday flagship programme, Politics Today.
Speaking further, Okeke alleged that the APC usually impose “unpopular candidates” hence the need to use money to induce the electorates especially in the states they (APC) control.
He insisted that “it is indisputable that the APC spends a lot of money during elections” when asked if he had personally witnessed the allegation.
He continued “if you ask anybody on the street, especially in the streets where they control”.
Okeke also noted that “both their interim national chairman and other interim senior officers of the party, all their concentration is on Anambra election” warning that they will “flood the place with money as they normally do”
