Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has criticized President Bola Ahmed Tinubu over his recent condolence visit to Plateau State, raising concerns about how the visit was handled.
Atiku said the visit, which was meant to show sympathy to victims of violence, did not fully reflect the seriousness of the situation. He noted that in times of tragedy, leaders are expected to show empathy and provide clear direction on how such incidents will be addressed.
He also pointed to the ongoing security challenges in Plateau State, where repeated attacks have led to loss of lives and displacement of residents. According to him, the situation requires practical steps from the federal government to improve security and protect communities.
Atiku added that public officials must be mindful of their actions and words when engaging with affected communities. He called on the government to focus on measures that will help prevent further violence and restore confidence among the people.
The remarks highlight rising political tension as concerns over security and leadership responses continue to shape public discussion.
