In a stark indictment of President Bola Tinubu's leadership, Senator Baba-Ahmed has called for the president to resign, citing a profound failure to secure the nation. During an appearance on Arise TV's The Morning Show, Baba-Ahmed emphasized that "no one has been safe under the current administration," highlighting the alarming rise in insecurity across Nigeria. This statement comes as crime rates surge, particularly as the country approaches the critical 2027 general election, raising concerns about the safety of citizens.
The backdrop of this crisis includes rampant kidnappings, attacks on communities, and a general sense of lawlessness that has permeated various regions. Critics argue that Tinubu's administration has not only failed to address these issues but has also exacerbated them, leaving many Nigerians feeling vulnerable and abandoned.
As the country gears up for the elections, the implications of this escalating insecurity are profound. Political analysts warn that unless decisive action is taken, Nigeria may witness an even more turbulent period ahead. With public trust eroding, the Tinubu administration faces mounting pressure to restore order and regain the confidence of its citizens.
