Explain What Your Administration Has Done With ₦15.8 Trillion Saved From Fuel Subsidy Removal – Peter Obi Dares Tinubu

Peter Obi and President Bola Tinubu Key Takeaways Peter Obi asked President Bola Tinubu to explain how his administration used the ₦15.8 trillion Obi said it saved from fuel subsidy removal. In a Saturday post on X, Obi also demanded an account of over $100 billion he said Tinubu’s administration had borrowed since 2023. Obi urged Tinubu to visit the remaining 33 states and explain government results on poverty, education, healthcare, electricity and security. The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has asked President Bola Tinubu to give account of the ₦15.8 trillion saved from the removal of fuel subsidy.

Naija News reports that Obi made the demand in a post shared on his 𝕏 handle on Saturday.

He commended Tinubu for spending a night in Akwa-Ibom State but also challenged him to visit the remaining states and feel the pains of Nigerians.

Obi also asked Tinubu to explain to Nigerians what he did with the $100 billion loans he has taken since he assumed office in 2023.

He said, “I congratulate you on spending a night in one of Nigeria’s states outside Lagos and Abuja. I hope you enjoyed the warmth, hospitality, and delicious cuisine of Akwa Ibom, which I am sure is even better than those of the destinations where you have spent over 260 days outside Nigeria since coming into office.

“I sincerely hope this visit will inspire you to travel to the remaining 33 states of the federation, spend time with the people and, more importantly, explain what your administration has done with the ₦15.8 trillion saved from the removal of fuel subsidy, the over $100 billion you have borrowed, the increased revenues accruing to the government from taxing Nigerians, and the additional government revenues which your administration celebrated last year as having surpassed its target.

“Nigerians deserve to know how many that were pulled out of poverty within this period, how many out-of-school children were returned to school, and how many functional primary healthcare centres you have built.

“They also deserve to know how much electricity supply has improved, especially given your promise that if you do not fix power, Nigerians should not vote for you. They deserve an explanation of how you have secured the country, which still ranks among the most terrorised countries in the world.

“Mr President, Nigerians deserve answers. They deserve to know what has been done with the resources entrusted to your government.

“The New Nigeria we want to build will be based on accountability, transparency, and the physical, measurable impact of our public resources on the lives of citizens.”
