Nigeria is in a full-blown state of emergency - Atiku

*When will Tinubu declare a state of emergency on his own disastrous Presidency?
 

On April 2, 2025, President Bola Tinubu  flew out to . Had this absurd announcement come just a day earlier, Nigerians would have dismissed it as an April Fool’s joke. But sadly, it’s no prank — just another insult to a nation pushed to the brink by a presidency that treats its citizens like fools.

The official excuse? A so-called "working visit." But Nigerians aren’t buying the spin. The presidency scrambled to clarify that it wasn’t a medical trip — how noble. But even if it’s not medical tourism, what justification is there for gallivanting across Europe while Nigeria bleeds? What kind of leader borrows billions only to blow scarce funds on vanity trips abroad? It’s not just irresponsible— it’s contemptuous.

Let the facts speak for themselves. By the time Tinubu struts back from this latest escapade, he will have racked up a staggering 59 days in since assuming office. “See Paris and die?” No — see Paris and abandon your country.

While Tinubu dines under chandeliers in the land of good governance, the country he governs is spiraling into chaos. Plateau has turned into a killing field — over 100 lives lost in relentless attacks. Benue is bleeding. Boko Haram is seizing territory. And every single day, Nigerians sink deeper into poverty, insecurity, and despair.

This isn’t just negligence. It’s dereliction of duty on a catastrophic scale.

If Tinubu had even a shred of empathy, he would cut his trip short and return immediately. A leader with an ounce of patriotism wouldn’t need to be begged to show up in times of crisis. The constitution says the security and welfare of the people is the primary purpose of government. But under Tinubu, that sacred duty has been trashed.

Let’s be honest: there is absolutely nothing Tinubu is doing in that he couldn’t do in Lagos, or even in Iragbiji. This so-called “working visit” is nothing more than a vacation cloaked in official jargon.

Nigeria is in a full-blown state of emergency. Not a contrived political emergency like what Tinubu declared in Rivers for partisan gain — this is a national collapse. So when, exactly, will Tinubu declare a state of emergency on his own disastrous presidency?

Atiku is watering a rock.

Does tinu care, nope.
He has people that defend his actions under his pay roll.
Expect them to start working.

His people are happy.
National cake dey enter their hands.
That's what matters.

The moment they stop eating, they will patriotism.
It's their turn to enjoy.
That is the reality of Nigeria that politicians spend billions on electioneering

Atiku should be the last person to talk about state of emergency.

This is the same guy that ran a campaign using Boko Haram against Buhari. Now he is talking about other people.

Another irrelevant statement from Atiku.

How many times did he declared state of emergency during his years as VP when Nigeria was facing lots of challenges?

Atiku should go and sit down. He was among the people that put us into this mess when he left pdp and ed apc that removed Goodluck Jonathan.

That's why till this very day I still have a soft spot for wike. Because he wasn't involved in those that betrayed the party

I'm sorry but Atiku is very weak and ineffective in opposition. I'm sure even Tinubu wants him to give him some solid opposition so that he can exercise his brain small but the man is busy making lame audio statements

Let military take over, politicians are not capable to handle Nigeria, Tinubu only wanted to grab power, that was why he was championing democracy several years ago.

At least, he would be able to have time to treat himself, if military takes over.
