- On Sunday, African Democratic Congress presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar accused President Bola Tinubu of damaging Nigeria's purchasing power through economic policies that made life expensive.

- Citing domestic refining support from the Crude Oil Refinery Owners Association of Nigeria and energy strategies championed by President Donald Trump, Atiku argues his 'Production Subsidy' would restore purchasing power.
- Spokesman Phrank Shaibu urged Nigerians to reject the current administration, arguing the choice remains between an economy that drains wealth and a plan designed to return money to citizens' pockets.
- While the administration grants waivers to multinational oil companies, Atiku contends it attacks relief for ordinary citizens, promising to make life affordable again through targeted subsidies.
