Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has criticised President Bola Tinubu and First Lady Oluremi Tinubu over the continued captivity of pupils and teachers abducted in Oyo State.
Atiku, the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, accused the Federal Government of failing to demonstrate sufficient urgency in securing the release of the victims.
In a statement issued on Friday by his Senior Special Assistant on Public Communication, Phrank Shaibu, the former vice president said the government appeared more focused on political activities than addressing the plight of the abducted pupils and their teachers.
“It is difficult to understand how a government that claims to care for its citizens could continue to project an atmosphere of celebration while innocent children and their teachers remain at the mercy of kidnappers.
“Leadership is not merely about occupying office; it is about demonstrating empathy when citizens are in distress,” the statement read.
