Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar has again come hard on President Bola Tinubu, accusing him of lacking competence and ideas in tackling the security challenges in Nigeria.
Atiku, a former presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP), spoke in reaction to the wanton killings and destruction of properties in Plateau and Benue states.
He accused Tinubu’s presidency of indifference to the killings, adding that the President chose to "galvanize in Europe" while unable to solve Nigeria's insecurity challenges
He wrote: "The Tinubu administration has proven, time and again, to be utterly incapable, wholly incompetent, and completely devoid of any coherent ideas for tackling Nigeria’s deepening security crisis.
"This is not just my position — it is a growing consensus among political opposition leaders, respected security experts, and even members within the ruling party who, though too timid to speak publicly, confess this uncomfortable truth behind closed doors.
"The blood of innocent Nigerians continues to be spilled with appalling regularity—most recently in the Logo and Gbagir communities of Ukum LGA in Benue State. Yet, the Tinubu presidency remains disturbingly indifferent, displaying neither urgency nor the basic decency of public empathy.
"Yet President Bola Tinubu, incapable of solving Nigeria’s worsening insecurity, chooses instead to gallivant across Europe — governing Nigeria in absentia as if from a holiday perch."
