Former Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has called on President Bola Tinubu to resign from office if he cannot tackle the security challenges plaguing the country.
The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate in the February 25, 2023, poll, expressed concern that President Tinubu was on a foreign visit when kidnappers have almost overran the country.
Atiku on his X on Tuesday, 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 killed a nursing mother and grandmother in Abuja for failing to pay N90million ransom and two monarchs in Ekiti State, 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,” he added.
