The campaign of APC Presidential candidate Gen Buhari has annouced that his campaign team has raised N54,415,386,70,
Buhari said he will fund his campaign through crowd funding, and not depend on money bags and contractors to hijack his campaign
According to him, his campaign team draw inspiration from American during Obama campaign
“My strength mainly are the ordinary people and the N100 they are contributing. It is a lot of money for them but I know they will make the sacrifice especially when I said I am not going to sign the cheque to get even a kobo out of that account.
That is why I depend on them. We are taking this idea from what we have seen in the United States when Barack Obama came out to contest, he was a coloured person, the big companies were not for him and so on.
“But he knew he had foot soldiers, so when he came up with this idea, he was able to finance his campaign without looking for money-bags or anybody influential. So, he remained independent and was not held hostage by anybody. And this is what I want to achieve.”
