PRP Criticizes Tinubu for Nigeria's Security Crisis

The People's Redemption Party (PRP), led by National Chairman Dr Hakeem Baba-Ahmed, has condemned President Tinubu's administration for the deteriorating security situation in Nigeria, describing it as a reflection of government incompetence and indifference. In a statement issued on Tuesday, the PRP called on Nigerians to voice their concerns regarding the ongoing killings and demand immediate action to safeguard lives and property.

The party identified several states, including Kwara, Niger, Benue, Kebbi, Zamfara, Sokoto, Kaduna, Borno, Plateau, and Yobe, as severely affected by criminal activities. The PRP accused the All Progressives Congress-led government of responding to the crisis with mere press releases rather than providing effective security measures.

Baba-Ahmed stated that the scale of violence suggests that Nigerians are living in a lawless country. He urged President Tinubu to take responsibility for the security crisis and act swiftly to prevent further loss of lives, emphasizing that citizens cannot wait until the end of the current administration in May 2027 for improvements.
