Labour Party presidential candidate for the 2023 election, Peter Obi, has issued a warning to President Bola Tinubu, advising him not to repeat the mistakes made by his predecessor, Muhammadu Buhari. Obi expressed concerns about the security failures during Buhari’s eight-year tenure, and suggested that Tinubu might be following the same path.
In response to recent cases of killing and kidnapping in Abuja, the former Anambra governor criticized the lack of decisive action and urged President Tinubu to address the growing insecurity in the country. Obi emphasized the urgency of tackling the issue of insecurity, especially in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), where unknown gunmen have reportedly been involved in kidnappings.
Obi described the recent abduction and killing of two young girls in Abuja as distressing and called on the Tinubu administration to take serious measures to address the situation. He pointed out that the country has been plagued by acts of terrorism, kidnapping, and banditry, but the surge in violence in the FCT is particularly alarming.
The statement from the Labour Party representative underlines the need for leaders to address the prevailing security challenges and take effective measures to combat the rising wave of violence. Obi’s remarks suggest a sense of urgency and call for immediate action to tackle the security crisis.
As the 2023 presidential election approaches, Obi’s warning to President Tinubu highlights the critical issue of security and the need for decisive leadership to address the challenges facing the country. This perspective may influence the national conversation on security as the political landscape continues to evolve.
