The Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has challenged President Bola Tinubu to give an account of the N15.8 trillion saved from the removal of fuel subsidy.

In a post on his verified X handle on Saturday, 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.

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

"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 N15.8 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," Obi wrote.

but anambra state citizens don't need to know where he kept anambra state government #2.13 Billions ecological fund abi ?

You for say he dey tonubu pocket and those your zombie obidients will be clapping for you like mindless cretins who cant think on their own.

Mr.Obi you still haven't told us ablot the monies yoi borrowed in anambra and lied to the whole world you didn't.......the details you claimed was in your hand over note was nothing but an amorphous attempt to feign uprighness, it was like something done by an apprentice trader making accounts for his oga.......2.1b you claimed was in first bank,your gov said there was nothing like that,you only made feeble attempts to gloss over the allegations which throws you off as unaccountable to the people you governed.

Dbull on this one!

If Tinubu enters for second term am ready to end it all.

Anyone that votes Tinubu is a nothing but a fool.

A man who achieved nothing in his four years. A working president should be campaigning on what he has done that is visible to the people and not foooling himself attacking oppositions.

Tinubu must be voted out by all means necessary

Imagine borrowing over 100 billion dollars and yet the poverty situation in the country worsened under you.

Data boys will turn deaf eyes and blind ears to this news.
Just watch and see as they divert the story to another delimna

Your case is no longer normal, even when they are fighting to give you a better tomorrow, you still want to remain in your poverty sticken lifestyle

This is the question every sane Nigerian is asking.
Tinubu should provide an answer instead of begging for more loans.

Good question, I must say!

Tinubu where's our subsidy removal savings

Hmmm!That is a gigantic sum of money to steal or mismanage.

You need psychological, mental, spiritual, and emotional help.

It has been shared amongst themselves. Nothing to show for all the trillions and billions. Nigeria I hail thee.

Meanwhile, you want to compare 2 billion to TRILLIONS?

I weep for your offspring.

The same better life he gave Anambra people that made them enter night bus to Lagos and cannot stay in their erosion land. If Obi becomes president Nigeria will turn out like Somalia. You want to elect a dundee as president

Nigeria is not as barren as the UK, there are enough natural resources to subsidized the basic needs of the masses.

But wants to operate like the UK by taxing every facet of life without a corresponding standard of living.

What needed to be done was to curb corruption and Subsidy wouldn't have been a pressure.

But of course, we take advice and economic standards from the IMF and World Banks of the western world, without considering our uniqueness.

The results is what we are seeing now, without any impact of the saved subsidy,

Which is now being looted through the budget, infact, hardly is there any prove that it is even part of the budget, as the budget increase can be largely traced to inflation caused by over 300% Naira devaluation.

The difference between now and then is that the subsidy beneficiary has change from Petroleum cartels, to political leaders,

And the masses have become poorer.

And Tinubu supporters think we r not sensible in dis country....

This govt is the most economically deficient in the past 2 decades

Thats over a hundred trillion in naira,

Dem go say coastal road 😄🤣🤣
And reforms

Foolish set of APC idiyorts,

Thank God ppl are waking up due to the suffering, in some parts of Lagos Dem de tear tinubu face comot from banners and posters, that's how u knw even the streets don't want him ,

Only criminals and ppl benefiting from the cursed economy

How can somebody borrow this kind of money and still want to borrow again for what purpose.

That is how he Left millions of debt in Lagos
Let him go and thank Fashola is own situation could have pass Ibori and Alameshia

This guy no just know nothing at all .

You think say Nigeria 🇳🇬 na anambra ?

You really need to wise up cos all these are exposing your full gullibility.

Nairaland should have community note.

Obi is too dull that it seems he does not even know the meaning of $100billion.

Below is the 2023 and 2026 external debt portfolio from DMO office.Tinubu only added $12 billion to the external debt.

Obi and lies.

Tinubu is only responsible for $7 Billilon of Nigerian debt.

100 billion dollars?

This clown has problem with number.

What is the budget of Nigeria self?

Who will borrow Nigeria that kind of money?
