Sagacity,

1. we cannot condemn based on the first question as we do not know who was invited and we cannot assume

2. Again we do know who this individuals are to know if they are qualified for the invite and what will our criteria for
    measuring their suitability be

3. Companies cannot spend their money outside the rules of the company. Goodluck has overhead cost which he can spend according to constitutional provision. He will only have to account for it

4. You are right but at the end of the day, some money or something was given back

N150k may be a bit on the high for travel expense only but it is also too small as a bribe.

Not all were given N150K. Could it be that opportunity cost for attending the meeting on the part of the individuals was built into the handout?.

Agaba passionately defending GEJ as usual 

Summary: Agaba went to the youth-meeting and intends to keep the money all to himself 

Bros, share small part of this thing now, e no good to close hand o

Oh, really?! Ok, tell us, Mr. Professional Bribe Giver: whats the "normal" amount that can/should be offered as a bribe [b]without offending [/b]the person whos intergrity ure trying to compromise?!

^^A modest dash of a few hundred thousand will do no harm to a young man's integrity

Especially when it's from a "decent" "honorable" politician whose actions and intentions are filled with good doses of Fresh Air! 

$1000 of the people's money offered as "Gift" is not to be considered bribe?? WOW!!!

He should repeat that in the presence of the thousands of pensioners dying one after each
other still waiting donkey years to collect the sweat of their labour.

If Obama invites you to the white house for a deliberation, will you have to pay for your travel expenses?
I know that ordinary companies who want to hire you and pay you most often organize expenses paid interviews.

Lets assume he was bribing those people, what was the bribery for? Who were the youths invited?

It would make much sense if the youths invited were people critical of GEJ govt who he wants to win but then that will also depend on their popularity and influence.

OK can Sahara tell us if the source collected or rejected his/her own travel allowance on top of his/her disappointment.
In this kind of issue, there is no point hiding the source if his information is correct at least his identity would help do some permutation.

BTW any youth who has attracted the attention of the presidency and can be bribed with N150K is cheap. Let's quit being sentimental.

This is the beginning of my remark. If it does not make sense to you, it may never make sense.
