The Barrister who was in charge of publicity during the campaign was alleged to have made away with and diverted into his personal pocket large amount of campaign funds which led to the loss of the election to the ruling party APC.
The lid on the misappropriation of the fund was blown open by a group PDP new media experts who participated in the Governorship election campaign, they narrated how the Barrister disappeared with over N3M meant for them during the campaign. We are sending warning signal to the NEC members of the party and the upcoming National Convention Committee to be careful of characters allowed to participate in the party Convention. We have also concluded plans to write the party officially on this matter.
To avoid dragging the party into another round of election defeat, proper screening of aspirants must be done to stop questionable characters like that of Bar. Usman Kabiru from plunging the party who is yet to recover from defeat hangover into another financial mess, the group said.
The Barrister is a fraudster who diverted campaign funds to himself during the Wada/Awoniyi Gubernatorial election campaign in Kogi state therefore immensely contributed to the defeat suffered by the party in the state.
This is the same man who wants to be our party National Publicity Secretary, no way, PDP will be doing a great disservice to Nigerians if such character is allowed to run for any office at all.
The barrister has some people working with him to disburse the funds but he and some principal officers in the campaign office are alleged to have cornered a substantial part of the fund running into millions of naira which led to the defeat suffered by the party in the November 2015 gubernatorial election.
