“We have written to ZUREPB and we are ready to pay any amount for ZUREPB to allow us erect billboards for our Presidential and gubernatorial candidates but for some obvious political reasons they denied us that opportunity”.

“If they accept our proposal and we paid whatever amount they asked us to pay they should have use the money to settle WAEC/NECO and also procure medicaments for the teeming populace”.
