Labour Party National Chairman, Julius Abure has finally opened up on the N3.5 billion allegation against him by the party’s National Treasurer.
He said: “It’s not true that she said that the party has collected over N3 billion. I want to make it abundantly clear, we already have an audited report, made by a certified auditor of the party.”
“The party has an external auditor who has reviewed all the records. And we have all the audited statements of accounts of the party from 2022 to 2023.”
“All these records are available; the audited statement of account, I have it here.”
“The total money, in summary, that entered the party account between 2022 and now is N1.3 billion; nothing more, nothing less.”
“We also got N700 million, which were the campaign funds that went straight to the campaign organization for the campaigns. I didn’t know and I cannot reconcile where she got the N3.5 billion that she talked.”
“I want to challenge her that she should make the record available where she arrived at the sum of N3.5bn as money generated during the election.”
