ADC-PCC Demands Tinubu Address Allegations of Paid Appointments

The African Democratic Congress Presidential Campaign Council (ADC-PCC) has challenged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to respond to allegations made by his campaign spokesperson, Alwan Hassan. Hassan reportedly claimed that some ministers in Tinubu's administration paid to secure their appointments and are now attempting to recover their investments.

The ADC-PCC, through its Director of Media and Publicity, Kola Ologbondiyan, stated that these allegations, made during a live television program, raise serious questions about the integrity of ministerial appointments and the accountability of the Federal Executive Council. The council emphasized that if substantiated, such claims would indicate a troubling process for filling public offices, suggesting that appointments are treated as private investments rather than positions of public trust.

The ADC-PCC insisted that the Presidency must provide a transparent response to these allegations, especially given the current economic challenges facing Nigerians.
