‘What A Tragic Statement’ – Atiku Reacts As Security Operatives Guard Tinubu’s Campaign Billboard

African Democratic Congress (ADC) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, has slammed President Bola Tinubu over security operatives around his campaign billboards in Kaduna State ahead of the APC’s official rally launch.

The former Vice President aimed the dig on Friday in a post shared on his official X page, questioning the government’s priorities amid worsening insecurity. Atiku argued that Tinubu claims to love Nigerians, but the security provided for his billboards contrasts with the situation in communities where residents struggle to protect themselves against attacks.

Bola, you claim Nigerians love you, yet your billboards in Kaduna require security guards. Bandits raid villages, terrorists attack communities, and families live in fear. Your posters enjoy protection that millions of Nigerians can only dream of. What a tragic statement of your government’s priorities. Bola, please protect Nigerians with the same urgency you protect your image!

Calling the situation a tragic reflection of Tinubu’s government priorities, Atiku urged Tinubu to protect Nigerians with the same energy he uses to protect his image.
