APC's Chukwuebuka Advocates for Continuity in 2027 Elections

Hon. Obidike Chukwuebuka, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Clarivo Holdings Limited, stated that Nigerians should prioritize the continuity of economic and institutional reforms when voting in the 2027 presidential election. In an interview with Vanguard, he highlighted several reforms introduced by President Bola Tinubu's administration, including the removal of fuel subsidy, foreign exchange reforms, increased revenue mobilization, student financing, and infrastructure projects.

Chukwuebuka noted that the removal of the petrol subsidy in May 2023 alleviated a significant burden on public finances, while foreign exchange reforms transformed currency market management. He also mentioned the Nigeria Education Loan Fund (NELFUND) as a crucial initiative for expanding access to higher education.

Furthermore, he cited ongoing infrastructure projects such as the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway and the Abuja-Kaduna-Kano Road. Chukwuebuka argued that these reforms require time to yield their full impact and should be considered in assessing the government's performance.
