2015 Campaigns: Buhari Denies Donations From Arab Countries


The All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari, has denied reports of possible campaign donations from Arab countries ahead of the forthcoming presidential election next month.

Speaking with journalists yesterday in Abuja, the convener of the meeting of the Buhari Support Groups and Chief of Staff to the APC presidential candidate, Col. Hameed Ali (rtd), who debunked the allegation, said: “It is not true. I am part of it, I am in the centre of it and I don’t know of any Arab man that has spoken to us, so it is untrue, it is false.”
“Buhari has said it that he launched the funding to get money purposely from the lower people because he wants the commitment of the people and to remember when he get to the office that it is the sweat of the people that got him there and by that he will be more committed to serve them.”
Meanwhile, the Buhari Support Organisation (BSO) has revealed that its fund-raising drive nicknamed Buhari Crowding Funding Initiative has so far realised a total sum of N118,702,265.36k.
