Media Adviser and spokesperson to the African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, Mr Paul Ibe, has said that President Bola Tinubu should resign over what he described as the government’s failure to address insecurity across the country.
Speaking on Arise Television’s Prime Time programme on
Tuesday, Ibe argued that the primary responsibility of any government is to
ensure the security and welfare of its citizens.
According to him, Nigeria is less secure now than it was in
2023, citing figures which he claimed showed that 879 people had been killed,
while nearly 300 others remained in captivity.
He described the statistics as alarming and said they
reflected the scale of insecurity facing the country.
Ibe further stated that the government’s efforts to tackle
the situation had not yielded sufficient results, stressing that the country
could not continue with what he termed a “trial and error” approach to
governance.
He said: “Let me tell you why President Tinubu needs to
resign. The primary responsibility of government is security and welfare. Are
we more secure now than we were in 2023? The answer is No.
“According to statistics, 879 people have been killed, and
nearly 300 are in captivity. Those statistics are very frightening. That’s a
snapshot of the pervasive insecurity that we have.
“The government’s efforts are not good enough. I mean, we
can’t continue on this journey of trial and error. The truth of the matter is
that Tinubu is incompetent and clueless.”
