The presidential candidate of the Presidential election Atiku Abubakar have asked president Bola Tinubu to resign if he cannot address the spate of insecurity confronting the country.
Atiku, accused the President of playing fiddle while the country is drowning in insecurity.
“If the shoes are too big for Emilokan, he should step aside. Nigeria does not need another Tourist-in-Chief,” the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain added. “The country needs 24/7 leadership to confront the pervasive insecurity and collapsing economy,” he said in a post on his X handle on Tuesday, recalling the various kidnapping episodes in several parts of Nigeria.
“Tinubu is playing fiddle while Nigeria is drowning in the ocean of insecurity,” Atiku wrote.
“To imagine that the Commander-in-Chief is on a so-called private visit while kidnappers kill a nursing mother and grandmother in Abuja for failing to pay N90m ransom and two monarchs in Ekiti, among other regular tragedies besetting Nigerians.”
Critics say the kidnapping crisis, impunity as well as inefficient security and wider government presence has allowed violence to fester.
