The Rivers state PDP chapter donated N50-million.
Africa's richest man, Aliko Dangote who was made the Chief Fund Raiser was unavoidably absent as he was said to be outside the Country, but his representative, Joseph Makanju promised that the business mogul would make his donation known once he arrives Nigeria...Do the math y'all!
With all of the monies announced at the fundraising dinner as well as those from private individuals, a total of N21.27-billion was realized with the highest individual donor being Mr Tunde Ayeni.
Tunde Ayeni
All of these money to be wasted on re-election. Do you know what this kind of money can do for our Nation? I mean, like seriously, what will cause one man to donate N2-billion towards anyone's re-election campaign?...I say, #ShortTermInvestment!
The first point of call is to recuperate the money as soon as Mr President gets re-elected....na wa for Naija and their politricks. May God help us in that Country!!!
