The Allied Peoples’ Movement, APM, has petitioned the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, to investigate an alleged N12 trillion discrepancy in savings from petrol subsidy removal, and question key officials, including Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Taiwo Oyedele, and his predecessor, Wale Edun.

The party said the figures raise a straightforward question: if Oyedele put the savings at N15.8 trillion, how did earlier government figures under Edun indicate about $20 billion, or N27 trillion, had been saved as of November 2024?
The demand was contained in a statement by APM National Publicity Secretary, Abubakar Yusuf, who said the discrepancy must be fully accounted for.
