Delegates heading for Abuja for the PDP presidential primary are set to be instant millionaires considering how much both camps have set aside as ‘transport allowance’ per delegate.

Pointblanknews.com sources hinted that the camp of Abubakar Atiku have set aside N7 million per delegate, but the rate budgeted by the President Goodluck Jonathan’s camp could not be confirmed at press time. But sources said it would not be less than a million each. Considering the fact that no less than 80 delegates would be in Abuja from each state, the budget is considered huge. The allowance is outside hotel accommodation and food.

Fresh facts have also emerged as to how Vice President Namadi Sambo, who is most likely to succeed Jonathan by 2015, ensured Jonathan made inroads into a large slice of the north.

Meanwhile, the move by Atiku to woo all the 50 senators who lost out at their primaries was thwarted last night by Jonathan as he hosted the ‘losers’ in Abuja.

Pointblanknews.com learnt that the President told them that in a democracy there would always be winners and losers, and stressed the need for cohesion. Most of the senators have already pledged loyalty to the President who have assured them of sundry roles in the next dispensation. Already Senator Grace Folashade Bent from Adamawa, and Senator Lee Maeba, both lost out, have said their support for Jonathan is unshaken.


Pointblanknews.com sources hinted that Sambo used the minority card to woo a large section of the north mostly in the north central. The Vice President has been able to have in his firm grip Kaduna, Benue, Plateau, Kogi, Nasarrawa, Kwara and Niger.

According to our source” Sambo queried why those clamouring for a northern President had never considered picking a northern minority, except core north candidates.”

“ Most of those senators were with the President last night. He hosted them and assured them they would relevant in the next dispensation. Atiku’s camp tried to grab these people, telling them they were betrayed by Nwodo (National chairman), and the President. But the Jonathan’s camp quickly moved in. Of course nothing is sure but Jonathan has placated them”



Sharing looted money, no b their fault.

SO now it's this pro GEJ pointblank news we should all believe. Story story!

Story!

this news or story shld be in the fridge until we know how much GEJ's camp is sharing. unless someone is telling us that GEJ is giving nothing.

7 Million * roughly 3000 delegates = N21, 000, 000,000.000 = 21 trillion = 5 times the size of Nija budget.

Bros na 21billion o!
However the fact remains that pointblank news is one of GEJ apologists news outlet. So I really would not lose my breath over this frivolous writeup.

Did anyone see the part in the article where it said ". . .Vice-President Namadi Sambo, likely to succeed President Goodluck Jonathan in 2015."? Na wa o, 2011 own we never know, meanwhile some elegbon don already choose 2015 own.

Did i hear u well ask, where that kind money go from? How did atiku became wealthy?

You answer that question, he was wealthy before 1999. In answeriong also answer how OBJ bought his farms at Ota and cross river state with N20,000 in less than 5 years after becoming president.

N21bn no be beans. Even if Atiku is worth more than that, he can't afford to part with that amount.

For GEJ, raising that kind of money will be a lot easier for GEJ and you know why

iit is more than 21billion

7M*3000 = 21 000 000 000 000

a trillion has 12 zeros

hence the figure 21 Trillion is correct

@Blacksta - Big Boss.

I wan make small correction
7million times 100 is 700 million.
7 million times 1,000 is 7 billion.
7 million times 5,000 delegates is 35 billion.
and if it is 3,000 delegates, it is 21 billion.


I doubt that Atiku has this kind of money to throw around though. It might just be propaganda.

Kai! What kind of hungry journalism is this. Where is this 'offpoint' news coming from. This is what happens when cruel politician own media outfits. The other day.
