I Used To Give Nafiu Bala ₦50,000 For Transport To Attend ADC Meetings – Ralph Nwosu

Naija News reports that Nwosu stated this on Wednesday during an interview with Lagos Talks, while addressing the leadership crisis in the party.

He said Bala, who served as Deputy National Chairman, could not attend any meeting in Abuja without first begging for transport money.

According to Nwosu, Bala would always wait for ₦50,000 to be sent to him for bus fare before travelling down for meetings.

He added that after the meeting, the party would still have to look for money to send him back home.

“Before then, when I invite Bala for a meeting in Abuja, he cannot come until I send him either ₦50,000 to take a bus to come for a meeting, and so on. And he would not leave until we are able to also scratch out money to pay for his transport,” Nwosu said.

Nwosu claimed that the story changed completely after Bala took the party’s leadership matter to court in September 2025.

He alleged that from then, Bala moved into one of the biggest hotels in town and started moving around with security men and bulletproof cars.

“This Bala, he went to court in September; we concluded the process in July, and from that September, he started living in one of the biggest hotels; he started moving around with security. He got bulletproof SUVs, more than three, moving with security,” he said.

When asked if Bala may have bought the cars because he was afraid for his life, Nwosu did not buy the excuse.

“Yeah, and then you can buy an SUV that is costing over ₦500 million,” he said.
