The Labor Party’s former presidential candidate, Peter Obi has urged President Bola Tinubu to cut short his two-week foreign trip and return to address what he described as an escalating security crisis across the country.
He made this known in a statement shared via his social media handle today where he called the president out for his absence while violent attacks, killings, and rising insecurity continue to claim lives across Nigeria.
Obi, who questioned the timing and purpose of the trip, likening it to the CEO of a distressed company abandoning its headquarters during a crisis, therefore urged President Tinubu to take drastic actions.
It will be recalled that President Tinubu departed for France on 2nd April for what was described by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, as a two-week working visit.
