The African Democratic Congress described the Federal Government’s N50,000 monthly cash relief for poor Nigerians as an election gimmick. The party stated the gesture was a panic reaction ahead of the 2027 election, rather than a genuine effort to address the cost-of-living crisis. The ADC also questioned the accountability for previous cash transfers flagged by the Auditor-General.
