 APC PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN COUNCIL PRESS STATEMENT ATIKU MUST EXPLAIN THE LEGAL AND FISCAL BASIS OF HIS PETROL SUBSIDY PROPOSAL At his press conference in Abuja on Friday, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar reiterated his proposed  “production subsidy” for locally refined petrol, which he said would reduce pump prices. He went further to ask President Bola Tinubu to slash the cost of diesel and petrol at the pump. That proposal raises important legal, fiscal and practical questions that he must answer. Section 205(1) of the Petroleum Industry Act 2021 provides that unrestricted free-market conditions shall determine wholesale and retail prices of petroleum products.

Middle Belt Forum: Peter Obi Won Plateau State With 1.2million Votes, Not 466,272

A member of the Middle-Belt Forum (MBF), Adakole Ijogi has claimed Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi got far more than the votes the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared for Plateau State.

Even though Peter Obi won Plateau State during the presidential election, the official results declared by INEC said he scored 466,272 votes.

When asked in an interview on Kaftan TV if he envisaged Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu would win the presidential election, considering the fact that he told the people of the Middle-Belt to rally round Obi?

Adakole Ijogi said, “well, the election outcome are still being contested. I strongly disagree with some of the results that they called. For instance, I was in the situation room, the results from Plateau was highly doctored. Labour Party and Peter Obi got up to 1.2 million votes but what was declared was less than 600,000 votes.

The same thing goes for Benue, Labour Party got almost 47% of all the total votes cast based on what we monitored in the situation room, that is, from our agents on ground where we are getting the results. Well that’s not what was declared.

The same thing happened again in Lagos, I mean you can imagine the Lagos one. So that election is still being contested.”
