APC clarifies on purported sales of nomination forms
The leadership of All Progressives Congress (APC), has debunked all rumours concerning the sale of nomination forms.
The party stated that sale of nomination forms had not yet commenced, warning its members to be weary of such messages.
The ruling party made this known in a statement by the National Secretary, Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee of All Progressives Congress, Senator John James Akpanudoedehe.
“Our attention has been drawn to an unauthorized message asking members of the party wishing to contest for various posts in the forthcoming congresses to make payments for nomination forms through a bank account.
“Members of the party should disregard the message and avoid making payment into any bank account because the sales of the nomination forms has not commenced.
“This clarification has become necessary in order to ensure that no member of the party is duped in the name of making payments for nomination forms.
“The APC management will use the appropriate channels of communication to inform interested members when the sales of the forms will commence and provide authenticated bank account for making the required payment.
“The relevant security agencies have been alerted on the fraudulent request for payment and when those behind it are apprehended they would be prosecuted for financial crimes.
