Obi described the nation as being in distress and likened the President to a retreating CEO far from the headquarters of his failing company.
Former presidential candidate Peter Obi has urged President Bola Tinubu to end his ongoing trip to France and return to Nigeria to address the escalating security situation. In a statement released on Wednesday, Obi criticized the President’s absence amid rising violence, particularly in Plateau and Zamfara states, where over 150 Nigerians have been killed in the past two weeks.
“Mr. President, domestic problems beckon,” Obi stated, emphasizing the urgency of the situation. He likened the President to a retreating CEO, detached from the nation’s challenges. Obi’s call comes as the government faces criticism for its handling of the security crisis.
In response, President Tinubu expressed sorrow over the recent attacks in Plateau State, urging unity among communities and leaders to restore peace.
