Igbos top list of donors to Buhari – APC


The Igbos of the five states of the South East geo-political zone topped the list of supporters who donated N54 million to the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, 

Muhammadu Buhari, the zonal chapter of the party has said.


Mr. Buhari, a former head of state, who is popularly called “GMB” announced on Tuesday that he had so far received N54 million from Nigerians to prosecute his campaign for the February election.
In a statement by its spokesperson, Osita Okechukwu, on Wednesday, the party expressed gratitude to the Igbos for topping the list of donors to the Buhari Support Organization Campaign Fund.
It did not, however, disclose the names of the donors in the statement.

It said the donations were the peoples’ contribution to the APC flag bearer’s quest to salvage the country from dangerous slide into a failed state.

“We are happy to announce that when the managers of the First Bank of Nigeria warehoused fund unveiled N54 million so far realized, Ndigbo topped the list of the highest donors; a unique account that has GMB as the only signatory,” the statement said.

“By topping the donor list, Ndigbo has graciously demonstrated that the celestial bond between GMB and the Nigerian Masses and the Middle Class is Pan-Nigeria and not sectional as insinuated.”

The party explained that the Buhari Campaign Support Fund has Mr. Buhari as the sole signatory for transparency purposes, and said the effort is to assist the former military ruler prosecute his presidential campaign because he “refused to enrich himself while in office”.'

“The South East APC salutes our people who embrace the Buhari-Bandwagon-Vehicle for Salvation; for it is our candid opinion that it is less than wise for the hard working and enterprising Ndigbo to, election after election, put all our eggs in one basket,” the party said.

    2. Nigerians should learn to behave like matured and responsible people most especially the politicians.No sense whatsoever for any person with a bit of functional brain claiming that a particular tribe/class or affiliation made more donations more than others.This kind of utterances belittle the morals of the statement maker.Hope APC curbs the shortsightedness of so called party reps or leaders showing their backwardness and idiocy

  2. What is fake about this? I am Ibo and many more of us are beginning to see beyond the 'our brother' narrative of the PDP cabal and vote with the rest of the Nation for a change in direction. Keep deceiving yourself that after 16 years in governance, the republican and intelligent Igbo will continue to rely on such mundane and premordial sentiments in casting their vote.

    1. Well said "Straight Spoken" a lot of our Igbo brothers still live in the deceit presented by a few who have sold their fellow kinsmen future for a pot of pottage thinking that only by appointing the Igbos into Ministerial and other juicy positions in this government is the solutions to infrastructural development in the South East.
      However the reality on ground speaks volume about GEJ gesture, as all his promises to develop the South East have been deceit and lies.
      The Second Niger Bridge which was widely advertised to be a REAL GROUND BREAKING Ceremony turned out to be a window show of deceit... my brothers, immediately the President left the ceremony all the heavy equipment and construction machinery were moved out to another location having shown on NTA to the gullible Igbos that work has commenced. Secondly among many deceit, is the Onitsha Enugu Express way which was promised will be reconstructed into a six lane dual carriageway is now a death trap and the list is endless... so who is fooling who with another plea to the Igbos to give GEJ another four more years when he cannot fulfill any of his promise in the last six years as the President. Igbos should wise up and stop playing to the gallery of PDP (People Deceiving Party).

  5. @11.46 No, GEJ didn't name ALL his donors, but the highest donors and then the "hidden" donors within various corporate and contractors' sectors. Let's try to be fair and objective in our comments. Merry Xmas.
