However, they were finally paid the sum of N10,000 each, a development which led to some of them opting to spill the oil.

The statement which further claimed that Bature earned the confidence of his principals following strong assurances  that ,he possesses the magic wand to unseat the APC National Chairman, allegedly recruited most of the Abuja protesters from the rank of the Kwankwasiyya political group in Kano.

“We are privy to credible information that Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf, working with some persons from the North Central geo- political zone, has doled out huge sums of money to some persons to sustain campaign against the Ganduje led Working Committee of the APC ,in his desperate but fruitless mission to remove him as the National Chairman .

“The party is, therefore, calling on the various anti graft agencies in the country, particularly, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC and the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences  Commppission ICPC, to investigate Kano  State Government spendings”, the statement stated.
