Nigeria’s Future in Jeopardy Due to Tinubu’s Self-Interest – Atiku

Former Vice President and 2023 presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has made a scathing critique of President Bola Tinubu’s administration, alleging that the future of Nigerians has been effectively mortgaged to the president, his family, and associates.

In a statement, Mr. Atiku expressed his deep concern about the direction of the country under President Tinubu’s leadership. “The future of Nigerians has been effectively mortgaged to President Bola Tinubu, his family, and associates,” Mr. Atiku said.

He alleged that the president and his inner circle have prioritized their personal interests over the well-being of the Nigerian people, leading to widespread corruption, economic stagnation, and social unrest.

“The Tinubu administration has failed to deliver on its campaign promises, and instead, has pursued a agenda that benefits a select few at the expense of the majority,” Mr. Atiku said. “This is unacceptable and has serious implications for the future of our great nation.”

Mr. Atiku called on Nigerians to wake up to the reality of the situation and demand change. “We must rise up and reclaim our country from those who seek to exploit and oppress us,” he said. “The future of Nigeria is too precious to be left in the hands of a few individuals who are more interested in lining their pockets than in serving the people.”

The statement has sparked a heated debate on social media, with some Nigerians expressing support for Mr. Atiku’s views and others defending President Tinubu’s administration.

When contacted, a spokesperson for President Tinubu dismissed Mr. Atiku’s allegations as “baseless and mischievous.” “The president is committed to the well-being of all Nigerians, and his administration is working tirelessly to address the country’s challenges,” the spokesperson said.

The controversy highlights the deep divisions in Nigerian politics and the ongoing debate about the country’s direction under President Tinubu’s leadership.
