ADAMAWA POLICE COMMAND ARREST TWO APC GUBERNATORIAL ASPIRANTS COORDINATORS WITH ILLEGAL POSSESSION OF LARGE VOLUME OF CASH
Two individuals said to be campaign coordinators of Aishatu Dahiru (Binani), an APC governorship hopeful in Adamawa have been arrested with a huge stash of cash ahead of the party’s primary election.
The arrested coordinators confessed that the money was for party delegates.
Binani, who currently represents Adamawa central at the senate, is reported to be the candidate with the biggest war chest in the governorship race.
The coordinators were arrested around 8 pm on Thursday, 26 May, 2022 when a combined team of security operatives reportedly stormed one of the locations where the cash sharing was being coordinated.
Apart from the men arrested and the money recovered, copies of filled-out commitment forms with details of the delegates were also recovered from the scene.
A senior police officer who was part of the operation was reported to have said the operatives are on the trail of the delegates, who had already filled the forms and collected the cash, using their details contained in the forms.
He said they were also combing other locations in a manhunt for vote buyers working for all hopefuls in the primaries.
