The People’s Democratic Party, PDP, ex-presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar, has accused President Bola Tinubu of lacking competence and ideas in tackling Nigeria’s insecurity issues.
Atiku said Tinubu’s presidency is indifferent to the latest killings in Logo and Gbagir communities of Ukum Local Government Area of Benue State.
Recall that Governor Hyacinth Alia of Benue State had confirmed the Killings of 55 People in the Logo and Ukum Local Government Areas of the state.
Reacting, Atiku said Tinubu has chosen to “galvanise in Europe” while unable to solve Nigeria’s insecurity challenges
Posting on X, 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 spilt 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.”
Tinubu, who is currently in France, is scheduled to return to Nigeria after the Easter holiday.
