The All Progressives Congress (APC) has declared that it will not refund the N100 million paid for its presidential nomination form.
“Forms purchased are not refundable. Period. It’s traditional for political parties across the world that once you have paid for nomination forms, you cannot come back and ask for a refund,” APC spokesperson Felix Morka said on Sunday.
The same rule should apply to governorship, senatorial and other nomination forms sold by the ruling party.
The APC has the most expensive nomination and expression of interest forms among the 18 registered parties.
The People’s Democratic Party’s (PDP) presidential nomination form costs N40 million.
While APC governorship forms cost N50 million, PDP sells its governorship forms for N21 million.
