Prominent members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have promised residents of Sokoto State millions of Naira if they vote for the party in the coming elections.

These promises were made during the zonal campaign rally held in Bodinga Local Government Area of Sokoto State.

According to Daily Trust, Attahiru  Bafarawa, a former governor of Sokoto State promised to give the sum of N50million to any zone in the state with the highest number of PDP votes.

Similarly, Alhaji Umarun Kwabo, a Sokoto-based businessman, and Muntari Maigona, the Director-General, PDP’s presidential and gubernatorial committee, promised the highest voting zone a brand new jeep and the sum of N10million respectively.

Bafarawa said he was backing Tambuwal’s re-election bid because the incumbent governor meant well for the state.
