Tinubu has abdicated Presidency to cabal, says APM

From Ndubuisi Orji, Abuja

The** Allied Peoples Movement (APM), has accused President Bola Tinubu of abdicating his official duties to a cabal, comprising family members, principal aides and other unelected persons, who have seized control of the administration.**

The APM, in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Abubakar Yusuf, said the president has allegedly failed to demonstrate the required capacity to provide effective leadership for the country.

The opposition party accused President Tinubu of running “a lethargic administration and most of the time absent from the theater of governance,” claiming that he is completely disconnected from Nigerians.

It noted that “Mr. President’s repeated absence at meetings of world leaders, particularly, the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA), also underscores his inability to effectively represent, propagate and drive Nigeria’s interest at the global level where he was expected to engage in high-level diplomatic discussions on matters affecting our nation.

“Instead, President Tinubu prefers holidaying abroad at taxpayers’ expense while critical matters of state are left in the hands of a cabal of aides and family members.

“Is it not absurd that President Tinubu has never visited any of the communities being ravaged by terrorists, kidnappers and bandits? Is it not equally absurd that President Tinubu has never directly met with grieving families and victims? “

The APM added, “President Tinubu has never, as Commander-in-Chief, demonstrated the commitment and capacity to lead from the front on matters of security. Instead, any time there was an attack; his Presidency will only issue lame statements, give directives or dispatch delegations rather than making direct on-the-ground visits himself.

“Such languid approach to issues of insecurity under President Tinubu continues to embolden terrorists, bandits and kidnappers resulting in the reported killing of over 600,000 Nigerians and abduction of many more by terrorist elements in the last three years.”
