The sum of $75,000 has been declared missing at the National Secretariat of the All Progressives Congress on Wednesday which is equivalent to N43,000,000.
The use of canopies has been employed due to the ongoing renovation at the party secretariat.
The party had to use this as alternative due to the ongoing renovation/refurbishment works being carried out in the secretariat main building.
It was learnt that the sum of $75,000 had gone missing amid the crowded struggle at the main entrance to the party premises.
A top source however said that the missing money was in no way connected to the monies from the sale of nomination and expression of interest forms as aspirants are expected to make deposits in the designated account numbers before picking up their forms at the Buhari House.
“It’s actually $75,000. You know there was a struggle at the gate when aspirants and supporters were trying to get in.
“When the parcel of money dropped, it went missing in a flash. By the time security operatives were alerted, the thief had vanished with the envelope,” the party source explained.
