The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kogi State rejects campaign signage and promotional materials fees of N150 million, arguing the charges are excessive. The party says the decision is capable of restricting political participation ahead of future elections.
Vanguard reports that the fees relate to campaign signage and promotional materials approved by the Kogi State government in preparation for the October 2026 local government elections and the 2027 general elections. Vanguard also states that the PDP is seeking a review and calls for a stakeholders’ meeting.
Punch focuses on the PDP’s rejection of the N150 million “presidential campaign signage” fee, describing it as excessive and undemocratic. While both outlets agree on the PDP’s position and the N150 million amount, they differ slightly in how they label the fee and the election framing. Neither outlet’s excerpt indicates the government’s response.
