The average price of one egg rose from about ₦88 in April 2023 to ₦261 in May 2026. A sliced loaf was about ₦500 in April 2023; by May 2026, the average was about ₦2,000 for a smaller loaf. These may look like small items in a government report. In a family home, they are breakfast. They are the money left for a child’s lunch. If 2023 was the illness, why does your “cure” buy less fuel, fewer eggs and a smaller loaf of bread?
No mother struggling to feed her children is asking for “morphine.” No worker spending his wages on transport is addicted to subsidy. They are asking what happened to the savings you promised and when your reforms will bring down the cost of living.
My fellow Nigerians, I will not ask you to accept another promise without asking how it would work.
Working with my running mate and our partners in the African Democratic Congress, I will pursue a clear purpose: make life affordable again.
