Atiku Abubakar's Fuel Stance Fears Tinubu and APC
Activist lawyer Deji Adeyanju claimed that Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, has instilled fear in President Bola Tinubu, the Federal Government, and the All Progressives Congress regarding fuel subsidy issues. This statement follows the announcement by Taiwo Oyedele, the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, of a 30-day fuel price discount at all Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited filling stations across Nigeria.
Atiku Abubakar criticized this discount as a panic-driven publicity stunt, arguing it is a desperate and temporary gesture that cannot address the significant issues caused by high fuel costs. Adeyanju praised Atiku for engaging in genuine opposition, stating that the only opposition to Atiku comes from Tinubu's allies, Peter Obi and Rabiu Kwankwaso.
He also remarked that wearing a "Tinubu-Must-Go" T-shirt is not a crime in a democratic society.
