If most of the OPEC member countries can subsidize fuel for their citizens...whose countries are better of than Nigeria in the "global poverty index", Nigerians should enjoy this subsidy as a major producer...
ATIKU LAUNCHES ‘ASK AA’ PORTAL TO OPEN DIRECT CHANNEL TO NIGERIANS
The African Democratic Congress (ADC) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has unveiled Ask AA, an information and citizen-engagement portal that gives Nigerians a direct opportunity to ask him questions about his political agenda, record in public service and plans for the country.
The portal goes live at 8:30 p.m. today, 15 October 2026.
The free-access platform allows Nigerians to submit questions on issues including the economy, security, technology, job creation and Atiku’s plan to make life more affordable. Atiku will respond personally to questions, while his media team will also help provide answers.
Powered by technology, Ask AA is designed to help bridge the information gap between voters and the ADC presidential candidate by making it easier for citizens to engage with him and access information about his positions and proposals.
“The objective of this initiative is to bring Atiku Abubakar closer to the electorate through a practical, problem-solving platform,” said Phrank Shaibu, Director of Strategic Communication for the ADC Presidential Campaign Council.
Shaibu added that the initiative reflects Atiku’s commitment to using modern technology to make government more efficient, secure and effective.
For communities without internet access, the campaign plans to make the platform accessible through a radio interface.
In announcing the initiative on his social media accounts, Atiku said he conceived Ask AA because he believes that “leadership is a two-way conversation.”
He said: “For too long, governance has felt distant—locked behind walls of bureaucracy. But our country’s greatest resource isn’t oil or land; it is our people. If we are going to build the Nigeria of our dreams, we must start by tearing down the walls between leaders and the people.
“That is why I am launching Ask AA—a direct citizen-engagement platform built for transparency, accountability and dialogue. No filters, no intermediaries.
“Whether you want to question my economic record, discuss my policy plans for technology, security and job creation, or share your own recommendations for national progress, nothing is off the table. I want to hear your questions, your policy critiques and your best ideas.
“Beyond answering questions here, I will personally call selected citizens who leave their contact details so I can hear directly about their experiences and the issues affecting their daily lives.
“A transparent, technology-driven government is not a promise for tomorrow. It begins with how we listen to you today.
“I’m logged in and ready. If you could ask me one question, what would it be?”

@thecableng@IMFNews Rubish talk... Has any of your counsels or advice for Nigeria ever worked before..? Every one of your advice taken (especially on subsiryy and taxation/has led to more hardship and pains for the vast populace...while you looked away. IMF please mind your business this time around
My fellow Nigerians, young and old, I know the pain you are carrying.
Parents go to bed worried about what they will feed their children tomorrow. Pensioners must choose between buying medicine and buying food. Young people work hard, yet transport, rent and basic needs consume what they earn. And across the country, families live with the fear of kidnapping, attacks and whether their loved ones will return home safely.
No family should have to face hunger and insecurity at the same time. We cannot allow this hardship and fear to become the future our children inherit.
If you are a registered voter, please go and collect your PVC. Hold on to it. It is your voice, your choice and your peaceful power to demand change.
Bola made life expensive. I will work to make life affordable again and restore the security every Nigerian deserves. Let us stand together, across generations, and vote for a Nigeria where every family can live with dignity, safety and hope. -AA
@climaxx_empire@MCINdiaye@atiku little "homework" 4u: do your research & perhaps ask around (from elders should u be too young to know) which administration has been the best in Nigeria's history since 1999, and who's been the best "VP" within the period given all the indices 4 governance (especially economy)?
