The 2023 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar, has slammed President Tinubu for visiting Plateau state today Saturday, October 4, to attend the funeral of Mama Lydia Yilwatda, mother of the National Chairman of the All Progressive Congress, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda when he has never visited the state to commiserate with the victims of several attacks of insecurity in the state.
In a post via his official X handle this evening, Atiku described the President’s visit to Plateau which is one of the areas hardest hit by violent attacks as “a sad reflection of priorities and a mockery of leadership.”
He opined that it was regrettable that the President chose to visit Plateau State to attend a funeral event associated with the APC chairman rather than commiserate with victims of the persistent k!llings and displacement across the region.
