Adebayo Condemns Plateau Bus Attack, Critiques Government

Prince Adewole Adebayo, the presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP), expressed condolences to the families of victims of a recent attack on a commercial bus in Plateau State. The incident, which occurred at Dungus Junction in Kuru, Jos South Local Government Area, involved gunmen opening fire on the bus, resulting in several deaths and injuries.

Adebayo criticized the Federal Government for failing to fulfill its constitutional duty to protect citizens, stating that the attack reflects a broader security crisis in Nigeria. He referenced reports from organizations such as Global Rights Nigeria, SBM Intelligence, and Amnesty International, highlighting the rising incidents of killings, kidnappings, and violent crimes.

Adebayo emphasized the need for a proactive security approach rather than reactive military operations, asserting that the government has abandoned its responsibilities. He committed to making security a top priority in his administration, promising decisive action within his first 100 days in office to restore public confidence in the security system.
