Former Cross River State Governor Donald Duke has pledged to lower the price of petrol to 300 naira per litre if he is elected president in the 2027 general election.
The political figure made the commitment regarding fuel costs, a critical economic indicator in Nigeria, as part of his campaign platform for the upcoming presidential race.
Duke, who previously served as the governor of Cross River State, outlined this specific target as a key policy objective should he secure the presidency in the next electoral cycle.
The statement addresses the ongoing public discourse surrounding fuel prices in the country, positioning the proposed reduction as a central element of his economic agenda for 2027.
Nigeria remains one of Africa's largest oil producers, and fuel pricing continues to be a significant factor in the nation's economic stability and cost of living.
