APC Supporters in Viral Video Lament ₦1,500 Payment After Campaign Event
A viral video shows young men wearing APC-branded shirts expressing frustration after allegedly receiving ₦1,500 each for attending and campaigning at an event. The men, some of whom displayed the cash on camera, appeared dissatisfied with the amount after spending hours dancing, chanting and standing under the sun. The shirts in the video carry President Bola Tinubu’s image. The clip has renewed debate about paid political crowds and the economic hardship that makes small stipends attractive to unemployed or underemployed young people. It also raises questions about whether campaign rallies reflect genuine grassroots support or temporary mobilisation for payment. The payment claim in the video has not been independently verified.
