 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. The Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority, in a statement on Saturday, explained that it neither fixes pump prices nor issues administrative price templates, except where the statutory conditions for intervention are met.

 Former Minister of Digital Economy Isa Pantami reacts to allegation of killing a student at Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University in Bauchi


A heated confrontation unfolded on X after a user accused former Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Prof. Isa Ali Pantami, of having a role in the 2004 k!lling of Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University student, Sunday Achi. Pantami forcefully rejected the accusation and repeatedly challenged the accuser to reveal his identity and meet him in court.


Responding to the user “Sodiq (ex-muslim),” Pantami wrote: “No need of the shift. Lets meet in court, please. Let your identify be known. You can support the family so that we can meet in the court, including your grok and AI generated evidences.”


When another user shared a Punch article alleging that Pantami was the Chief Imam of the ATBU mosque when a fatwa led to the student’s death, Pantami insisted the allegations were fabricated. He posted: “Grok gets input from the available information online. It could be wrong many times. If you are sure of your allegations, take the matter to court. Otherwise, let us have your verifiable details, do that we can meet in court. FYI, I have never presented any fatwa in that regards.”


In a longer response, he reiterated: “You are making an allegation that is 100% untrue. I have never k!lled or directed anyone to k!ll anyone in my life. Either directly or indirectly. If you have any evidence of that, kindly help the relatives of the deceased and take the matter to court. Alternatively, if you are strong enough, provide your full details so that I can take you to court for the false allegation. Grok and other AI that you depend on get input from the available information online. It could be wrong many times. If you are sure of your allegations, take the matter to court… FYI, I have never presented any fatwa in that regards to k!ll anyone.”


The accuser had claimed: “You that k!lled a student in ATBU, you’re now forming holier than thou.
