Presidential candidate Peter Obi, from the National Democratic Congress, has pledged to retain President Bola Tinubu's naira float policy if elected in 2027. During an interview on Arise TV, Obi stated that he would focus on increasing productivity to strengthen the currency and make it more valuable to Nigerians. The naira float policy, introduced in June 2023 by Tinubu's administration, aims to unify the foreign exchange market and allow market forces to determine the currency's value.
Obi emphasized that the election should not be driven by ethnic considerations and urged APC members to unite as 2027 campaigns begin.
