RE: Tinubu is Playing Fiddle While Nigeria is Drowning in the Ocean of Insecurity By Yazid Inuwa MK Bauchi

Yesterday, the former vice president and PDP presidential candidate in the 2023 presidential election, Atiku Abubakar shared to his official Tweeter handle: “Tinubu is playing fiddle while Nigeria is drowning in the ocean of insecurity. 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. If the shoes are too big for Emilokan, he should step aside. Nigeria does not need another Tourist-in-Chief. The country needs 24/7 leadership to confront the pervasive insecurity and collapsing economy.”  Atiku Abubakar decried. 

But reacting to the former vice president Atiku Abubakar, the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, described Atiku’s statement as “reckless!” Mr Onanuga said the president is on top of the situation despite his current private visit to France. “While in France, President Tinubu has been following developments at home and he is on top of the situation in the country. Today’s inauguration of the Tripartite Committee on National Minimum wage bore his imprimatur,” he said.

“He is in constant touch with his officials and security chiefs and has directed them to stamp out every form of criminality in the country. “He has particularly ordered them to apprehend those criminals responsible for the murder of two monarchs in Ekiti State and the kidnapping of some pupils in the state,” he said. Mr Onanuga said Atiku may still nursing hangover of his electoral defeat as he latches on any issue to attack President Tinubu. He said if the former vice president was “really concerned about security issues and not playing cheap politics, he should have known that President Tinubu is on top of issues and working hard to restore peace to every part of our country.”

On thus backdrop, perhaps the former vice president Atiku Abubakar is entitled to his opinion, but, nonetheless, he needs to be reminded, with all due respect, that those in glass houses should not throw stones. You folks may recall that during the build-up to the 2019 presidential election, former president Olusegun Obasanjo said Atiku, who was contesting for president, can never enjoy his support for any political office, adding that God will not forgive him if he supports Atiku. This backlash that the former vice president Atiku Abubakar could not, up to date, explain to Nigerians, pertinently that is coming from his former boss, who is always against his former vice president, when it comes to vying for any political office in Nigeria.
