Who got the N 750 million nomination
bribe that has caused a huge scandal
in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP )?
Two key officials of the ruling party’ s
National Working Committee (NWC )
fingered in the deal are said to be on
the run .
A manhunt has begun for them as the
Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC) cast its net wide to
recover the cash .
House of Representatives member
Ndudi Elumelu was said to have given
the cash to win the party’s Delta State
governorship ticket.
An Abuja billionaire , who collected the
money from Elumelu, is in police
custody .
He is said to be a friend of a PDP
National Vice Chairman and son- in-law
of a former Minister of Aviation .
The suspect was arrested last Friday
and some exotic cars were taken away
from his Abuja home .
While EFCC is looking into Elumelu ’s
petition , more aspirants have
volunteered to testify on the huge cash-
for - nomination deals during PDP’s
primaries .
Elumelu petitioned EFCC when he could
not get the party’ s governorship ticket.
A source in EFCC said: “ So far, we have
been able to get clues that two
members of the NWC of PDP had direct
link with the collection and
disbursement of the N 750 million.
“ We have their names and we may
invite them for interrogation any
moment from now. The suspect said he
was just helping a friend and the
money was handed over to some NWC
members .
“ It is too early to prejudge the affected
NWC members. But when we invite
them , we will let you know.
“ But the suspect is still with us giving
vital information on how he tried to
help Elumelu as a friend .”
As of press time , the affected NWC
members were trying to wield influence
to resolve the matter amicably.
A party source said : “There is tension
everywhere , the NWC members are
calling for amicable resolution of the
issue at stake.
“ They do not want anything that can
affect the image of the party. I think
they want to refund the cash quietly to
avoid any backlash on the party and
their political career.
“ I think the luck with Ndudi Elumelu is
that he is from a well-connected family
which will make cheating him difficult ”.
Findings also revealed that a chartered
jet was also on standby for some of
those behind the deal in order to get
the governorship ticket for Elumelu .
Another source added: “They embarked
on many shuttles with a chartered jet
during the transaction.
“ The N 750million deal was one of the
reasons why Tony Obuh, the hitherto
anointed candidate of the Governor of
Delta State, Emmanuel Uduaghan lost
out .
“ To some extent , those who collected
the cash assisted in scheming out
Obuh from the race . But they could not
rout out the party’s eventual
governorship candidate , Senator Ifeanyi
Okowa , whom they did not know had
been a friend of the National Chairman
of PDP, Alhaji Adamu Muazu , for many
years.
“ They really cheated Uduaghan without
knowing that they were digging their
graves . ”
Other aggrieved aspirants are also
seeking their pounds of flesh . They are
said to be ready to squeal on how some
PDP leaders negotiated nomination
deals with them .
A third source said : “ Since this incident
became public knowledge, more
aspirants have volunteered to go to
EFCC with more information about the
activities of the Screening , Electoral
Committees and Appeal Committees .
“ You could see that during the
primaries , some aspirants were
disqualified but miraculously they were
cleared again.
“ Some said they parted with huge sums
without getting the party’s tickets for
offices aspired to .
“ They said they have records of how the
monies were paid or wired. I think there
will be more revelations in the days
ahead .”

They have to function now because the aggrieved is connected.
Anybody voting for PDP at any level really has to examine himself and his motives.
