What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Tinubu administration secured loans from the World Bank for national development. However, the Makinde-Daura Presidential Campaign Organisation (MDPCO) criticized the plan, warning that continued borrowing could increase Nigeria’s debt burden. The organization opposed the proposed loans, which were cited as totaling about $20.5 billion and €1.04 billion.
