The Peoples Democratic Party,
PDP, on Wednesday reacted to the high cost of nomination forms of the All
Progressives Congress, APC.
PDP said the high cost will
encourage corruption by public office holders.
The National Publicity Secretary
of PDP, Kola Ologbondiyan stressed that it will make looting mandatory if APC
members win election into any office.

makes looting mandatory if their members ever won election into any of the
offices. #corruptionwithoutlimits,” he tweeted.
