Obasanjo left over $50 billion in foreign reserves, but under Jonathan, that reserve fell to about $28 billion in five years defending the Naira.
Now President Tinubu has taken the reserves back above $50 billion, Utomi wants us to deplete them defending the naira at ₦500/$1.
If that is the alternative being proposed by the opposition, then it makes logical sense to reasonable Nigerians to stick with President Tinubu and his pragmatic reforms.
We are convinced that targeting a strategic appreciation of the exchange rate by reasonably strengthening it from ₦1,350/$ to ₦500/$ as part of our manifesto is a winning strategy
It offers a direct, multi-faceted approach to curbing inflation, reducing poverty, and lowering the cost of living
When paired with our core manifesto commitments—such as major infrastructure improvements in security, electricity, and the road network, alongside structural reforms to boost market competitiveness—we can reasonably project a dramatic drop in staple commodity prices:
• Sliced Bread (Loaf): ₦1,750 → ₦800
• Imported Rice (50kg bag): ₦55,000 → ₦27,500
• Yam (Medium tuber): ₦2,400 → ₦1,200
• Maize (50kg bag): ₦75,000 → ₦37,500
• Plantain (Bunch): ₦2,500 → ₦1,250
• Whole Chicken: ₦7,000 → ₦3,500
• Eggs (Dozen): ₦2,300 → ₦1,150
• Garri (Painter): ₦1,300 → ₦650
• Petrol (Per litre): ₦1,350/$1 → ₦500/$1
• Cement (50kg bag): ₦13,500/$10 → ₦2,000/$4
It clearly demonstrates our concrete plan to uplift the 140 million Nigerians currently experiencing multi-dimensional poverty

Court Orders Uzodinma to Stop Parading Himself as APC Candidate, Recognizes Former Governor Rochas Okorocha for Imo West Senatorial District
Justice Obiora Egwuatu of the Federal High Court in Abuja on Thursday ordered Imo State Governor Hope Uzodinma to immediately stop presenting himself as the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for the Imo West Senatorial District election scheduled for January 16, 2027.
Delivering judgment, the court held that Uzodinma did not win the May 18, 2026 APC primary election, which was conducted by the party and monitored by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
The judge said that evidence before the court showed that former Imo State Governor Rochas Okorocha secured the majority of votes cast and should be declared the winner.
The judge subsequently ordered the APC to forward Okorocha’s name as its candidate for the 2027 general elections in the Imo West Senatorial District.
