  • The presidential candidate is challenging the arithmetic behind the government's social welfare program.

Presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar has publicly challenged the financial figures presented by the Bola Tinubu administration regarding its cash transfer program. Abubakar asserts that the government's claim of disbursing over N600 billion to vulnerable households does not add up, citing discrepancies with the administration's own stated payment framework.

Abubakar's critique focuses on the arithmetic behind the program, suggesting that the reported disbursement figures are inconsistent with the government's own payment structure. This raises questions about the transparency and accuracy of the social welfare initiative aimed at supporting vulnerable populations.

The presidential candidate's challenge highlights a potential lack of clarity or accountability in the implementation of the cash transfer scheme. The administration's claims are now under scrutiny, with Abubakar demanding a reconciliation of the figures presented.
