Following the announcement that a group known as the Nigerian Consolidation Ambassadors Network, NCAN, on Wednesday purchased the presidential nomination form for Buhari, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Festus Keyamo, said: “na dem dey rush us”.
Keyamo, who is the Spokesperson for Buhari Campaign Organisation, took to his Twitter page to congratulate the NCAN group and revealed that they beat other groups to purchase the presidential form for PMB.
Keyamo via his Twitter page further said that there were more than 100 PMB groups rushing to Abuja in a fierce race to purchase the Form.

Keyamo tweeted;
“Congrats to NCAN group that beat other groups to purchase d Nomination Form for PMB.
“Officially, there were more than 100 PMB groups rushing to Abuja in a fierce race to purchase d Form.
“Some rice farmers was one of such groups. As the trendsetters would say ‘na dem dey rush us!.”
However, some Nigerians on Twitter disagreed with him and lambasted him for saying “na dem they rush us.”
Many also called out some key players in Buhari’s government and accused them of embezzling funds to fund Buhari’s reelection.

Meanwhile, NCAN purchased the nomination form at the national secretariat of the APC for the sum of N45 million.
On the other hand, the Peoples Democratic Party’s presidential nomination form is N12 million naira.

This is a clear evidence that the President’s good deeds and enthusiasm in revitalizing the Economy is welcomed by many meaning Nigerians and have decided to stay put with the president in achieving this….

The Electoral Act 2010, as amended, says no individual or entity should spend more than 1m as election expenses for a candidate.what do have to say?
NCAN said they bought the form to appreciate the good works of the president. That is gratification, which the law frowns at.

Congratulations to @MBuhari and NCAN (whoever they are). However, I am worried at the huge cost of the form. 3yrs ago, it was #22. 5m and PMB claimed he borrowed to pay. Now it’s #45million. What will it be in 2023? I hope we aren’t competing with #EPL. #DemonizePolitics!

Omg ! Politics again
So u want to make us believe that Buhari doesn’t have the money to purchase his own Ticket. I wonder why your name doesn’t end With LAI nah— Adebanjo Ibraheem (@Adebanjo_82) September 6, 2018
Am disappointed in APCs leadership over the cost of participatory forms. As a progressive party I expected APC to set the price within the means of the poor.Again PMB should’ve rejected that NCAN donation and allow us contribute the N1,000 each to give us a sense of entitlement. pic.twitter.com/xBKhi6o2al

I always say, if you an activist or a clergy, and you still want to maintain your integrity, kindly stay away from politics. Don’t accept any political appointment, because the truth will be very far from your lips.

Politicians never have money to buy forms.
Its the poor Nigerians that have money to buy the forms for them.

No group anywhere buying buhari form; it was solely purchased by Kogi gov, Yahya Bello
— Peter Okolo (@realokopet) September 6, 2018
Budget for buhari’s hair cut per day is over #200k yet he deceived his gullible followers he can’t afford form and they foolishly bought him his forms. Just concludes buharis statements on the youths being lazy, illiterate and waiting on government to put food on their table
