Atiku Abubakar is calling on President Bola Tinubu to step aside, ‘if the shoes are too big’, as he reacts to the worsening security situation in the country.
The Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the last election, Atiku took to his official social media page on Tuesday 30th January 2024, to add his voice to millions of Nigerians calling for immediate actions to the security situation in the country, that has seen over 17,000 people kidnapped in the last one year.
Atiku who in his social media post on Tuesday, labelled President Bola Tinubu as ‘Commander-In-Tourism’ hit at the President for going on private visit in France while the country is drowning in ocean of insecurity. He said:
“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,-AA”.
