I can not remember INEC being this vocal on funding. The last elections involved obscene donations in APC-PDP, no noise then. They are trying to block diaspora funding, good enough for the economy but taboo for elections! The credibility of INEC is at stake. https://t.co/IJgxwld9CZ

@channelstv Because labour has lunch their account ? during BUHARI time he was receiving funds everywhere in the world no one talk about electoral law, is a welcome development
 
@channelstv All of a sudden, because @PeterObi has refused to oblige to the status quo - to separate himself from the Nigerian politicasters who pose as politicians - then INEC remembers this section? Same section the other parties have outrightly violated in the past? Shāmeful Commission!

Do not retain any fund remitted from outside the country abi?

@channelstv Useless law that wasn’t working in 2014/2015 when AOC we’re receiving donations from abroad

Your tactics will not work inec
 
This law is useless, they should supervise the donations not outlaw it completely and this Labour party guys are playing into Inec hands. https://t.co/eIENgXgSlM
 
@channelstv your so-called constitution should be amended,
Since Using the restriction of fund from outside is not specific to what basis.

What if a friend with a company abroad Choose to Support his own Friend (Candidate).
What discrepancy is in It.
