Sources at the ‘Buhari House’ headquarters of the APC told Prime Business Africa that Barrister Nwajiuba, the minister of State for Education, was the first to pick the form earlier on Wednesday morning through a proxy.

Governor Bello, who came in person to pick up his form, was seen tendering a bank teller evidence of his N100 million payment to the Director of Finance of the APC and subsequently endorsed at exactly 2.35 pm after which he proceeded to collect the nomination  and expression of interest forms.

It was a rowdy situation as the Kogi governor came with thousands of supporters creating a scene and forcing the security personnel to ward off many of the supporters. ”In fact, the governor came with almost the whole of Kogi State for this,” one of Governor Bello’s supporters told Prime Business Africa in Abuja.
