Atiku Blasts Tinubu’s Leadership as Nigeria Faces Crisis

Atiku Abubakar has launched a fresh attack on President Bola Tinubu’s leadership, accusing the administration of failing to adequately respond to Nigeria’s economic hardship, insecurity and other pressing national challenges.

Atiku’s latest criticism follows Tinubu’s three-week European vacation, which the former Vice President described as creating a “disturbing vacuum of political leadership” at a time when Nigerians are struggling with rising food prices, transport costs and insecurity.

Atiku argues that the issue is not whether a President should travel or take a break, but whether the timing reflects the urgency of the challenges confronting the country.

But is Atiku’s criticism justified, or is this simply political opposition ahead of the 2027 presidential election? What does Nigeria really need from its leadership at this critical moment?

Watch, listen and join the conversation.
