Obi, in a post on his X account on Saturday, recalled that Tinubu had made the pledge during the 2023 presidential campaign. “If I don’t give you constant electricity in four years, don’t vote for me for a second term,” Obi quoted the president as saying. “When he took office in 2023, Nigeria had a power supply of over 4,000 megawatts and lower tariffs. Today, the electricity power supply is less than 4,000 megawatts on the average, and Nigerians are paying higher tariffs. “You have no light here — I fly out in ten minutes,” Obi quoted Tinubu as saying.
