The African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential running mate, Rotimi Amaechi, has assured Nigerians that the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar’s proposed restoration of fuel subsidy will not enrich a few wealthy Nigerians if elected president.

Amaechi disclosed that Atiku would restore a production-based subsidy if elected president in 2027.

Speaking at a town hall meeting in Edo State on Thursday, Amaechi said the fuel subsidy would target owners of refineries and modular refineries in Nigeria.
