NDC Challenges Tinubu over Nigeria's finances, says Obi will reverse borrowing trend

The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has taken a swipe at President Muhammadu Buhari's administration over Nigeria's financial situation, asserting that former Anambra State Governor, Peter Obi, will reverse the nation's borrowing trend upon assuming office.

The NDC, in a statement released by its spokesperson, Dr. Kema Chikwe, challenged President Buhari's administration to account for the financial gains of the subsidy removal during Obi's tenure as governor of Anambra State.

Dr. Chikwe stated that while Tinubu criticized Peter Obi over erosion in Anambra State, Obi had contributed significantly to the improvement of the state's infrastructure by launching the World Bank-supported Nigeria Erosion and Watershed Management Project (NEWMAP).

The party further emphasized that the Obi-Kwankwaso ticket's central mission is to halt what it described as the administration's reckless spending and the depletion of Nigeria's commonwealth.

The NDC accused the administration of borrowing $190 million in 2022, adding that the party's candidate, Peter Obi, would reverse the trend if elected.

The NDC stated that Obi's administration in Anambra State had no debt when he left office, unlike the current administration that owes $190 million.
