Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar has condemned President Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu for ignoring insecurity challenges while trying to execute protesters for treason.
Atiku in a statement posted on X on Wednesday, lamented the killings by Boko Haram in Yobe and other parts of northern states, attributing them to the Tinubu-led government’s “failure.”
Despite the tragic bloodshed in Yobe, which has claimed scores of lives, and the rampant destruction across numerous villages in Katsina, Sokoto, and other towns within the North-West and North-Central regions, the government seems to remain detached, engrossed in inconsequential affairs,” Mr Abubakar said.
He added, “The turmoil extends to the South as well, where the disquiet wrought by Boko Haram and the unsettling political discord threatens the nation’s peace. Amidst these grave challenges, the federal government preoccupies itself with stifling dissent, resorting to draconian measures such as imposing death sentences on protesters.”
