PETER Obi: “We will bring back subsidy after tackling corruption’; Obi promises Nigerians

2027 presidential candidate *Peter Obi* has said his administration would consider bringing back *fuel subsidy* after tackling corruption and addressing the leakages he believes are responsible for waste and mismanagement in Nigeria’s public finances.

Obi’s position has reopened the debate over the controversial fuel subsidy policy, its impact on petrol prices and the cost of living, and whether Nigeria can afford to return to a subsidy regime.

What exactly did Peter Obi promise Nigerians? How does he intend to tackle corruption before reintroducing subsidy? And can such a policy reduce the pressure of high fuel prices and the rising cost of living?

We examine Obi’s proposal, the arguments for and against fuel subsidy, and what his position could mean for Nigerians ahead of the **2027 presidential election**.
