  "summary": "Atiku Abubakar has criticized President Tinubu's economic policies, citing the rising cost of living in Nigeria. According to Atiku, Tinubu's policies have led to higher fuel, food, and transport costs, as well as weakened businesses.\n\nAtiku stated that Nigerians are experiencing hardship due to the economic policies, with empty pockets and a lower standard of living. He urged Nigerians to reject Tinubu's government, saying they need relief from the current economic situation.\n\nAtiku promised to make life more affordable if he were to take over, with plans to support production, create jobs, and lower the cost of living. Daily Post Nigeria reported Atiku as saying that his plan would put money back in people's pockets, and that Nigeria must produce more and have people pay less.",
