Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar condemned the abd¥ction of schoolchildren and teachers in Ogbomoso and k+llings in Katsina, accusing the federal government of failing to protect Nigerians and only reacting after tragedies instead of preventing them. He described the situation as a collapse of leadership and worsening insecurity across the country.
“At a time when armed cr+minals are abd¥cting schoolchildren, sla¥ghtering innocent citizens, and turning communities into graveyards, President Tinubu’s response remains the same tired ritual: condemn the k+llings, thre@ten that the perpetrators will face the ‘full wrath of the law,’ and then wait for the next mass+cre.
“Nigerians have heard this script too many times. It has become painfully predictable and utterly meaningless.
“President Tinubu must stop governing by obituary statements.
“The horrifying abd¥ction in Ogbomoso and the gruesome k+llings in Katsina are not isolated incidents.
“When terr+rists can invade schools, abd¥ct children and teachers, b¥tcher pregnant women, sack entire communities, and disappear without consequence, it is because the authority of the state has collapsed.
“What comfort is ‘the full wrath of the law’ to families already burying their loved ones? What solace is another presidential statement to parents now terrified that sending their children to school may be a de@th sentence?
“Even more disturbing are reports suggesting deliberate attempts to suppress images and documentation of these atrocities from reaching the Nigerian public.
“If this government is indeed more interested in censoring evidence of mass k+llings than in preventing the k+llings themselves, then that is not merely incompetence it is cruelty of the highest order.
“This is no longer just a security failure. It is a moral failure. A leadership failure. A national disgrace.
“Nigerians deserve more than performative outrage and ceremonial condolences. They deserve a government that can protect lives, defend communities, and act before tragedy str+kes not one that merely reacts after the d@mage is done.”
