Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has berated President Bola Tinubu over his failure to resolve the security crisis in the country.
Atiku, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2023 general elections, was reacting to the recent surge in the kidnapping and killing of unsuspecting citizens across the nation.
He recalled the killing of a nursing mother and her mum in the FCT and the murder of two monarchs in Ekiti State on Monday.
The former VP wondered why the President embarked on a private visit to France amid the ravaging banditry and other security issues bedevilling the nation.
President Tinubu had last Wednesday departed the country to France on a private visit.
In a post via X on Tuesday, Atiku wrote: “Tinubu is playing fiddle while Nigeria is drowning in the ocean of insecurity. Imagine that the Commander-in-Chief is on a so-called private visit.
