The former Jigawa State governor, Alhaji Sule Lamido, criticized President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s decision to embark on a two-week leave outside the country amid the current economic and security challenges.
The ex-governor made this assertion in a statement posted on his Facebook page, titled DEAF, DUMB, CONFOUNDED.
Alhaji Sule Lamido said, “President Bola Tinubu traveled abroad to reflect on his administration’s economic reforms.”
The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) stalwart alleged that the president had deliberately and consciously unleashed hardship, pain, and agony on Nigerians.
According to him, “Does President Tinubu have the human empathy, compassion, love, care, and concern to ponder and reflect on Nigerians’ dire situations while in the comfort of Europe?”
Alhaji Sule Lamido concluded his statement by citing the biblical story of Pharaoh and Moses: “Once upon a time, there was Pharaoh, and there was also Moses.”
