An envelop containing $75,000 was stolen from a yet to be named person, by a yet to be identified thief at the All Progressives Congress, APC, National Secretariat Abuja. This happened during the rush at the party registration venue.
Although canopies were used outside the Secretariat for the purpose of party faithfuls picking up their nomination and expression of interest forms, the money was not part of monies paid for forms.
Such monies were paid into dedicated Party accounts.
Eye witness account says that due to the congestion at the gate, people were squeezing themselves through the gate when someone shouted he has lost an envelop containing some money.
“Before Security Agents could be alerted, the money could not be found” said the source.
$75,000 roughly translates to about N44 million in today’s exchange exchange rate.
The questions everybody has been asking are: Why would anybody carry such a sum to the Secretariat? And for what purpose?
