‘If The Government Cannot Protect Nigerians, President Tinubu Should Resign Or Forget Re-Election,’ Peter Obi Says As He Criticises Rising Insecurity


Peter Obi has called on President Bola Tinubu to either resign from office or abandon any plans to seek re-election, arguing that the Federal Government has failed to adequately address Nigeria's worsening security crisis.

In a statement shared on his X account on Monday, Obi made the remarks after visiting Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde over the continued captivity of schoolchildren who were abducted more than 50 days earlier.
