Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar reacts to a public opinion survey that he says shows most Nigerians reject President Bola Tinubu’s fuel subsidy policy. Atiku, speaking through his media aide Phrank Shaibu, references an SBM Intelligence survey in which 67.4% of respondents reportedly oppose the current approach.
In his comments, Atiku frames the survey result as a critique of the Tinubu administration’s handling of fuel pricing and subsidy arrangements. Both outlets report that the former vice president uses the poll to argue for the restoration of a petrol subsidy and to link the issue to his political positioning for the future. The coverage focuses on the reported survey figure and Atiku’s reaction, rather than presenting new independent data or verification of the survey methodology.
