Insecurity: Tinubu Isn’t Providing Right Leadership, Says Atiku

Former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar has accused President Bola Tinubu of not providing the leadership needed to tackle insecurity.

Atiku said this during a meeting with some stakeholders from Borno State, who paid him a visit.

They were led by Mohammed Kumalia, a former member of the House of Representatives.

In a social media post, Atiku disclosed focus of the meeting was insecurity, especially in Northern Nigeria.

“Last night, I played host to political stakeholders from Borno State, led by Hon. Mohammed Kumaila. It is encouraging to see that more people, especially political leaders from across the country, are increasingly becoming concerned about the deteriorating state of the Nigerian nation to the extent of engaging in finding solutions, round the clock.

“The conversation with the Borno leaders centred more on the current worsening security situation, especially in Northern Nigeria. The consensus is that the occupation of Nigerian territories across some parts of North East, North West, and North Central states is a clear failure of political leadership, especially under the Tinubu-led APC Federal Government.

“It is unacceptable that bandits or terrorists continue to takeover communities, imposing levies on citizens and disrupting farming activities. I believe that with the right political leadership, Nigerian security forces have the capacity to take on the insecurity confronting the country.

“It has become urgent for citizens to unite and rescue Nigeria. I thanked the Borno stakeholders for their show of concern about the state of the nation and expressed readiness to support efforts aimed at restoring the peace and economic prosperity of the country.”(Daily trust)
