Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2023 election, Atiku Abubakar, has faulted the absence of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima from the country at the same time.
Atiku, in a post on his X handle, said the action of the two leaders is unprecedented, leaving the country rudderless.
According to Atiku, the country is on autopilot, a regrettable situation at a time when Nigerians are faced with daunting challenges.
Atiku’s post reads: “I have been inundated by reports of the absence of the president and vice president from the country. It is unprecedented that the two leaders will be absent from the country at the same time, especially now that the nation is faced with daunting challenges. The question that readily comes to mind is who is in charge of government at this point, or is it right to assume that we are on autopilot?”
