Peter Obi will crash dollar to N500, slash bread to N800, rice to N27,500 if elected — Pat Utomi vows Political economist Pat Utomi has said the presidential campaign of Peter Obi and the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) is proposing to strengthen the naira to N500 against the dollar if elected in 2027. Utomi disclosed this in a post on X, explaining that the exchange-rate target forms part of the party’s economic blueprint aimed at tackling inflation, reducing poverty and restoring Nigerians’ purchasing power. According to him, the proposed naira appreciation would be supported by investments in security, electricity and road infrastructure, as well as structural reforms designed to make the economy more competitive. He projected that the plan could trigger significant reductions in the prices of essential commodities. Under the proposed programme, a loaf of sliced bread currently selling for about N1,750 could fall to N800, while a 50kg bag of imported rice could drop from N55,000 to N27,500. A medium-sized yam, he said, could reduce from N2,400 to N1,200, while a 50kg bag of maize could decline from N75,000 to N37,500. Plantain could fall from N2,500 to N1,250, while a whole chicken could drop from N7,000 to N3,500. Utomi also projected that a dozen eggs could sell for N1,150 instead of N2,300, while a painter of garri could drop from N1,300 to N650. He added that petrol and cement would also become cheaper. “We are convinced that targeting a strategic appreciation of the exchange rate by reasonably strengthening it from ₦1,350/$ to ₦500/$ as part of our manifesto is a winning strategy,” he said. “It offers a direct, multi-faceted approach to curbing inflation, reducing poverty, and lowering the cost of living.” Utomi added that the proposal represents the party’s “concrete plan to uplift the 140 million Nigerians currently experiencing multi-dimensional poverty.” However, he did not state when the N500/$ target would be achieved or provide details of the monetary and fiscal measures required to sustain such an appreciation.

I won’t be voting for Peter Obi in this coming election. I’ve thought about it, and if we are being truthful, Tinubu is actually working. He deserves a second tenure to finish the good work he has started. Now I see what APC members are seeing. Wow.

No wonder she wants to die Ontop gele!! 😭 See as the gele elevated her look and made her look like a woman😭 Without gele na Emeka the body builder 🫵😭

Why did Governor Sanwoolu waste so much money on buying many BRT busses and building train stations? Money that he should have kept in banks to generate interest.

Sad news: FG not TINUBU'S ENERGY REFORMS ARE OPENING NEW POSSIBILITIES: 1: Imolites, congratulations. 2: An unexpected discovery of 157 billion cubic feet of natural gas at Achi Mbieri, Mbaitoli LGA, alongside an additional 19 million barrels of crude oil from the Aku-01 expansion. -(a): pls read above @PeterObi and Abu Cameroon @atiku 3: And guess what?

“I give Tinubu from today until January 15, 2027, to end the killings across North. If he succeeds, I will vote for him and encourage my people to do the same.” — Bafarawa challenges Tinubu to restore security in the North if he wants their votes.

My younger brother @Durastone_ started drama in our family group chat this morning I backed him immediately! No be play! This is the battle of our lives and I will do what I have to do! We all should! Do not vote wisely!!! Just vote Peter Obi!!!

Asiwaju! Bosses of all Bosses. No politician in this era could have pulled this off. The bill was sent to the States on September 16th; it is barely a month, and I am confident it will become law before the end of the year. This is the same country where the PIB which didn't require a constitutional amendment, took 22 years to pass.
