Dele Momodu, a media mogul, has purchased the Peoples Democratic Party’s Expression of Interest and Nomination Form in order to run for president in the upcoming election.
Momodu obtained the paperwork, valued at $40 million, during a visit to the party’s national office in Abuja on Friday, InsightnaijaTV reports
Following the purchase of the form, the presidential candidate defined the high cost as a sacrifice that must be made in order to preserve the country from its deteriorating status.
He did, however, explain that some Nigerians gave money to help him buy the form he needed to run for president in 2023.
Momodu praised the young Nigerians who donated between N500 and N20,000 in response to his social media appeal earlier this month.
He said: “I want to thank all the kind-hearted Nigerians who contributed every kobo raised so far for this laudable project.
“I am deeply touched by their act of uncommon generosity, especially because I know of their tough financial situations. It is gratifying and humbling for me that from the very little that they possess, Nigeria comes first. God will bless them.
“I’m proud to stand resolutely to challenge those who feel Nigeria and Nigerians can be bought or bribed by the highest bidder.
“The time for the rejection of such a notion is now. Nigerians will no longer sell their soul for 20 pieces of silver, and I make bold to say that they are prepared to make this statement and are relying on the political parties for the opportunity to demonstrate that this is the case, by giving to them worthy candidates rather than a recycling of the failed so-called political juggernauts.
“Like many Nigerians, I’m vehemently opposed to ethnic jingoists who see where they come from as the only prerequisite qualification for aspiring to lead Nigeria, no matter how ugly and inglorious their past had been.”
