NDC: One Ticket, Two Visions - Politics

Image
  The presidential candidate of the opposition Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Obi and his running mate, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso appear to have divergent views on some issues ahead of the 2027 presidential election. Obi and Kwankwaso hold different views on fuel subsidy removal and establishment of state police. Daily Trust reports that Obi supports the removal of the subsidy but believes it should have been removed in a structured and phased manner, noting that the alleged mismanagement of subsidy savings should not have been an excuse for restoring it. Speaking at the Nigerian Bar Association conference in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, recently, Obi maintained that he did not support a return to the fuel subsidy era. “I subscribe and maintain that you need to remove the subsidy.

  ENUGU AIR GOES INTERNATIONAL: ENUGU OPENS A NEW GATEWAY TO AFRICA Today, Enugu Air has officially commenced its inaugural international service from Enugu to Douala, Cameroon — a landmark moment that signals a new chapter in Enugu’s economic and regional connectivity. Driven by Governor Peter Mbah’s strategic vision to reposition Enugu as a premier destination for commerce, investment, tourism and enterprise, the new route connects two important economic centres: Enugu, a major commercial hub in South-East Nigeria, and Douala, Cameroon’s leading commercial gateway to Central Africa. This is more than the launch of a new flight. It is the opening of a corridor of opportunity — connecting businesses, traders, investors, tourists, families and ideas; shortening travel and supply chains; and creating new possibilities for cross-border trade and regional economic integration.
