Tinubu, Atiku have so much money to spend on election—Baba Ahmed

The Labour Party vice presidential candidate, Datti Baba-Ahmed said Bola Tinubu and Atiku Abubakar have so much money they kept for themselves and are ready to spend in the 2023 general elections.

Mr. Baba-Ahmed who was speaking on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics programme said the All Progressives Congress and Peoples Democratic Party candidates respectively have money people are ready to collect and according to him, this is the structure they always brag about.

“There is no such thing as structures; it is the conflagration of people interested in collecting the money they have kept. That money must be collected by somebody; you can’t leave them to get away with that money.

“Tinubu does not have enough days in his life to finish spending that money. Atiku does not have enough days in his life to spend all that money. So, they need to spend it on the 2023 elections. And people, if you have money to spend, they will collect it,” Baba-Ahmed said.

He insisted that the LP is “well-resourced” but won’t spend money it can’t account for. He stressed that the two dominant parties have the so-called “structures” without governance having “misruled” Nigeria collectively since 1999 when the country returned to democracy, signalling the beginning of the Fourth Republic.
