Atiku Abubakar Responds to Babachir Lawal's Criticism

Atiku Abubakar, the former Vice President of Nigeria, responded to Babachir Lawal's public criticisms, which he described as rooted in bitterness and ethnic profiling. Atiku noted that Lawal's allegations lacked evidence and instead invited Nigerians to focus on facts rather than emotions.

He condemned Lawal's attempt to portray an entire ethnic group as linked to crime, asserting that individuals should be held accountable for their actions, not entire communities. Atiku highlighted the irony of Lawal's position, given that he served in the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari, who appointed him to a high office.

Furthermore, Atiku criticized Lawal's contradictory statements regarding his political aspirations and his claims of being a victim of political conspiracies. He reiterated his commitment to national unity and condemned violence across Nigeria, emphasizing that tragedies affect all Nigerians regardless of their ethnic or religious backgrounds.
