ADC presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar delivered a counter-address to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's Independence Day speech, arguing that three years of the President's "treatment" has left Nigerians struggling to afford food, medicine and transport, and ending with "Tinubu must go." Concurrently, President Tinubu's directive for reduced transport fares from October 1 under the CNG Transit Programme has yet to deliver widespread relief, though Oyo, Enugu and Borno recorded reductions. The Presidential CNG Initiative's Vice Chairman, Toyin Subair insists fares are going down. Meanwhile, NDC presidential candidate, Peter Obi said Nigeria is not cursed but has cursed itself through its choices, and pledged not to spend a single holiday abroad if elected.
