ADC Chieftain Denies Atiku's Alleged Bribery in Party Primaries

Dele Momodu, a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), refuted claims that Atiku Abubakar resorted to bribery with dollars to sway delegates during the party's presidential primaries. Momodu clarified that campaign funds are essential for legitimate campaign logistics and electoral operations, distinguishing them from bribery.

He cited the 2020 U.S. presidential election, where Kamala Harris raised substantial campaign funds but did not win, highlighting the importance of strategic fund utilization. Momodu stressed the significance of campaign funds for election security rather than delegate inducement.
