CITIZENS COMPASS— An anti-corruption group, Coalition Against Corruption and Bad Governance (CACOBAG) on Tuesday, criticised the sales of N100m Nomination form by the All Progressives Congress (APC) across the country.
CACOBAG also supported a suit before Justice Binta Nyako, Federal High Court Abuja, against Independent National Electoral Commission INEC and nineteen political parties, demanding scrapping of nomination fees.
The Group disclosed this in a statement signed by its Chairman, Toyin Raheem, which reads:
Coalition Against Corruption and Bad Governance (CACOBAG) is to join Ejime Okolie’s suit FHC/ABJ/CS/04/2026 before Justice Binta Nyako, Federal High Court Abuja, against Independent National Electoral Commission INEC and nineteen political parties, demanding scrapping of nomination fees. These fees breed corruption and disenfranchise honest Nigerians. APC sold presidential forms for N100m and local government chairmanship forms in some states are now N30m. N100m surpasses the basic salary of the president for four years.
We commend Comrade Ejime Okolie for this suit.
There is no party, except one or two that are exempted from the immoral and anti people nomination fees.
Which political party in Nigeria has sanctioned their political office holders found to be corrupt? There is none as due to the exorbitant nomination fees collected.
