Abia PDP governorship candidate, Dr Kelechi Anosike
The 2027 governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in Abia State, Dr Kelechi Anosike, has backed President Bola Tinubu for a second term, saying the removal of fuel subsidy has increased revenue available to state governments and driven development across the country.
Anosike, in a statement by his media unit, said the policy had significantly increased allocations to the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, allowing governments to undertake more projects and meet their financial obligations.
He said the increase in revenue should, however, go beyond infrastructure and be translated into improved welfare for Nigerians who have continued to bear the effects of the subsidy removal.
“If anyone is asking why President Tinubu should get a second term and what he has done to earn it, they should be referred to those projects and massive developments across the 36 states and FCT,” he said.
