Abia APC chieftain berates party over cost of nomination forms

One of the founding members of All Progressive Congress (APC) in Abia state, Ambassador Chidike Ukauwa, weekend berated the All Progressive Alliance (APC) over price tag for the presidential and governorship forms, describing it as outrageous.

This was even as he announced his stepping down for another aspirant and oil merchant, Dr. Uche Oga.

Ukauwa disclosed this while briefing the press in his office in Umuahia, condemning the price of N45 million for president and N22.5 million for governorship as unavoidable, but expensive.

He however congratulated President Muhammadu Buhari for signing into law the ‘Not too young to run bill’, pointing out that the price for forms has discouraged many youths who have the intention to contest but cannot afford the price.
