‘Insensitive, Devoid Of Empathy’ – Labour Party Slams Tinubu Over Europe Holiday
The Labour Party has lambasted President Bola Tinubu over his Europe holiday in the face of insecurity ravaging Nigeria.
Nenadi Usman, the Acting National Chairman of the party, described the trip as insensitive and devoid of empathy for Nigerians facing violent attacks and humanitarian crises.
Usman emphasised that the President should have remained in the country to coordinate security responses.
“This is the most inauspicious time for the President to leave the country. Even the Christmas holiday in Lagos seems ill-timed, given that a bomb exploded in Zamfara today, killing nine people,” Usman said.
According to her, Nigeria was under external attack, accusing the government of downplaying the severity of the situation.
The LP Acting National Chairperson further explained that the President had not convened critical security meetings since the U.S.-led bombardment of terrorist camps in Kwara and Sokoto States and condemned the perceived lack of engagement with military leadership.
Tinubu departed Lagos for Europe ahead of his scheduled official visit to Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates for the Sustainability Week (ADSW 2026) Summit at the invitation of the UAE President, Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan.
The trip is coming in the wake of heightened security concerns in the country.
