Tinubu pulled trigger, never took bullet for Nigerians – Atiku’s aide replies Presidency

Paul Ibe, media aide to African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, on Friday disagreed with the presidency that President Bola Tinubu took bullets for Nigeria.

Tinubu’s spokesman, Bayo Onanuga had said Tinubu took bullets for Nigeria to survive.

Dismissing Onanuga’s claim, Ibe said Tinubu actually pulled the trigger of the gun that is killing Nigerians.

Posting on X, Ibe said the countdown to Tinubu’s retirement has begun.

He wrote: “Dear @aonanuga1956,

I beg to disagree. President @officialABAT did not take the bullet for “Nigeria to survive” whatever that means.

“It is clear even to the blind that Tinubu actually pulled the trigger that is killing Nigeria and its people.

“His legendary incompetence and cluelessness of the last three years has enthroned a season of pervasive insecurity, hunger and multidimensional poverty, deepened our faultlines and put hopelessness in overdrive.

“The countdown to the retirement of Tinubu to Iragbiji his hometown or Lagos his adopted home has begun.”
