Where will non-wealthy members of the APC, like Gbenga Hashim Olawepo get such money from?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis APC party and president Buhari must tell Nigerians where Senator Orji Uzor Kalu and former Senate president Dr Ken Nnamani would fetch #100m from, when their salary as Senators was and is #750,000 per month (aside humongous allowances). It would take Kalu and Nnamani 135 years to earn 100 million.<\/p>\n<p>Ozekhome said the \u201cexorbitant sum is a direct invitation to bare-faced thievery and political brigandage when these aspirants eventually win elections and emerge leaders\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>He said the price tag constitutes \u201cdirect and brazen discrimination against other pauperized Nigerian members of the APC party, especially the youths and women, contrary to section 14(2)(b) of the 1999 Constitution\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe APC is now rabidly promoting plutocracy (government of the wealthy); gerontocracy (government of the oldest members of the society); and oligarchy (government of a select few),\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Popular lawyer and activist, Mike Ozekhome has declared that the All Progressives Congress (APC) is monetising democracy.
