The Nenadi Usman-led faction of the Labour Party has taken a swipe at President Bola Tinubu as the security situation worsens, calling on him to step up or resign from office.
The factional National Publicity Secretary of the party,
Tony Akeni, made this call in a statement on Thursday in Abuja.
The party accused Tinubu, as well as the ruling All
Progressives Congress, APC, of failing, particularly in the area of security,
despite allocating over N6.5 trillion and several billions of US dollars to
defence spending in the last decade.
According to the statement, the current security crisis is a
cumulative failure of both the APC and the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, which
held power before 2015, insisting that neither party could absolve itself of
blame.
It stressed that the principal function of government is the
security of lives and property.
“If President Tinubu cannot deliver this, he should sack
Nuhu Ribadu, reconfigure the armed services, step up his security governance,
or do Nigerians a patriotic favour by sacking himself,” the statement read in
part.
