The leadership expert and business coach took to his Twitter account (@feladurotoye) on Wednesday, September 12, 2018, to urge Nigerians to donate at least N1000 each to his campaign to enable him purchase the nomination form and cover other campaign cost.
He posted, "I need you to donate at least N1000 or whatever you can to purchase a nomination form (N3.5M) & to cover the cost of team travel across the nation in preparation for the Party primaries on September 29th, 2018.
"I know it's a sacrifice, but like I've always said you're the only cabal I have and will ever need."

The aspirant further published the financial report of his campaign so far to prove that he's running a transparent campaign that is accountable to donors and Nigerians.
Durotoye was one of the 18 presidential aspirants who formed Presidential Aspirants Coming Together (PACT) coalition in July 2018 and resolved to get behind one consensus candidate to contest against President Muhammadu Buhari in the 2019 presidential election.
Last month he was elected the consensus candidate even though it led to the exit of a few members of the coalition who expressed reservations about the electoral process.
