Peter Obi says he’d have removed fuel subsidy and floated the naira, just not like this. The presidency clapped back, accusing him of lacking the knowledge to lead.
- Obi, on Arise TV, supported subsidy removal but criticised its “haphazard” rollout
- Asked about alternative plans, he insisted he’d do it “in an organised way”
- Presidency, via aide Daniel Bwala, called Obi’s comments “shallow.”
- Accused him of chasing power without concrete solutions
- Obi demanded accountability on how the subsidy savings have been spent
As more citizens question where subsidy billions are going, should politicians focus more on showing their math, not just slinging mud?
