shut your damn mouth 'fore you dropped, nigga

U can s*ck Buhari d*ck and choke on it u M*ron!!!

Below is the list of what most states in USA charge for a candidate that wants to partake in primaries.

Governor: $5,000.
U.S. Senate: $5,000.
U.S. House: $2,500.
State Senate: $1,000.
State House: $500.
Judicial offices: $500.
Countywide elected offices: $100.
County Commission or Constable: $25.

Let's compare one state in USA and a country called Nigeria.

GDP of Texas 2021: 2.0 Trillion dollars
Budget of Texas 2021: 261.5 billion dollars.
Presidential aspirants in Texas pay a $5,000 filing fee.

GDP of Nigeria 2021: 446.9 billion dollars
Budget of Nigeria 2021: 23.3 billion US dollars (13.6 trillion naira)
APC presidential form: 170,940 US dollars (100 million naira)

Compare that to a poor country called Nigeria. APC decided to set the price of governorship at $85,470 (50 million naira). That is 16 times more than what is paid in USA. While that of president set at 170,940 US dollars (100 million naira) is 34 times more than what is paid in USA.

Until INEC sets a REASONABLE limit on how much political parties can charge, this ridiculous trend will continue.

Are our destinies tied to APC and PDP?
Many are complaining that these top two parties are disenfranchising young candidates with their prices. We have more younger people than old people. If only many Nigerians think like me, APC and PDP would have been abandoned for a long time. But most of the electorates love 'abusive relationship'.

If in other countries, a young person can win an election with a unpopular party, why can't it happen in Nigeria?

OP my question is why are u comparing a state and a whole country? Why wasnt the cost of American presidential ticket stated

Youths get 40% discount. That’s good. I go soon declare

Did u read properly at all?

Unfortunately so many did not read and comprehend how they arrived at 100m!!!!
Its not 100m upfront

ityP:
Yahaya Bello is not a serious contender. Only Amaechi, Tinubu and maybe Osinbajo are serious contenders. I see Osinbajo stepping down sha

Everybody must bow for the KING!! TINUBU!!!!
Rotimi Amaechi, Osinbajo and Yahaya Bello have no choice than to surrender to Tinubu the founder of the party. Its either Tinubu gets that ticket or nobody gets it at all.
