‘What Urgent Matters Continuously Warrant His Absence From The Nation? – Peter Obi Queries Tinubu’s Travels

President Bola Tinubu has been criticised by the Former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, over his frequent foreign trips.

Peter Obi in a post on his verified X handle noted that the president has already spent 23 days on foreign trips just in the month of January alone.

The former Anambra Governor pointed out that the first month of the year serves as a critical measure of the challenges that lie ahead, decrying that the situation in the country continues to worsen.

Obi’s statement in part reads:

“This month, he spent 23 days abroad across two trips—beginning the year overseas and returning on the 17th, and departing less than 10 days on the 26th to Türkiye, where he remains as of January 31.

“What urgent matters continuously warrant his absence from the nation? When he does return, it often appears to be merely to welcome defectors into the APC before he jets off again.

“Insecurity has surged alarmingly across the nation. In just January, we saw reports of several killings, hundreds of kidnappings and abductions that include children, pregnant women, and nursing mothers with the abductors demanding millions,”.
