I’ll campaign for Tinubu if petrol drops to N600 – Amaechi

Rotimi Amaechi, the Vice-Presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, has stated that he will withdraw from the presidential race and campaign for President Bola Tinubu if petrol prices drop to N600 per litre. According to Amaechi, this is a test of the government's economic claims, specifically the impact of President Tinubu's policies on Nigerians' living conditions.

Amaechi has expressed skepticism about the government's claims of economic progress, questioning whether the economic reforms have translated into lower prices and improved living conditions. He cited the high cost of transportation and petrol as evidence that things have not improved.

Amaechi also made claims about the impact of President Tinubu's policies on his personal life, stating that they contributed to the death of his mother, who he said struggled to afford necessary medication due to economic hardship.
