The All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign council says an allegation by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) that Bola Tinubu, its presidential candidate, is stockpiling new naira notes, is false.
The opposition party alleged that the ruling party is putting aside cash to buy votes.
In a statement on Monday, Mahmud Jega, the council’s media adviser, said the allegation by the PDP was because of the resentment against Atiku Abubakar, its presidential candidate.
“We want to assure Nigerians that claim is utterly false,” Jega said.
“Our candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, being always the voice of the voiceless and champion of the underprivileged, at numerous rallies and campaign stops, identified with our people and boldly called on CBN to extend the deadline and end the public suffering.
“Also spurious, devilish, and unconscionable is the claim by two UK-based Nigerians, one Bulama Bukarti and one Jafar Jafar, that the currency change was made because Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu stockpiled billions of naira in every state with the intention of vote buying.
“There is no iota of truth in this claim which was concocted for mischievous and devilish purposes by these PDP agents.
“We urge all Nigerians to disregard the allegations being peddled by the PDP and its surrogates, Bukarti and Jafar, and continue to exercise patience and to exhibit love, support, and determination until the Asiwaju Bola Tinubu/Kashim Shettima ticket is delivered at the polls with a landslide.”
