Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has criticized President Tinubu's administration for attributing the issues of insecurity and economic hardship to Nigerians. He argues that it is unjust to place the blame on the citizens for these challenges.

Former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar has criticized the current administration under President Tinubu, claiming that hunger has become a prominent issue during his tenure. He accused the Presidency of deflecting blame onto the media for the escalating insecurity and economic difficulties in Nigeria, describing this response as a dangerous denial of the realities faced by ordinary citizens, according to a statement from his Senior Special Assistant on Public Communication, Phrank Shaibu.

The Presidency has criticized former presidential candidate Peter Obi for his call for President Bola Tinubu to resign, labeling the demand as "childish" and "anti-democratic." Obi's request followed the resignation announcement of Keir Starmer, who cited public dissatisfaction over economic challenges as a reason for his departure. The criticism highlights ongoing political tensions in Nigeria.

Paul Ibe, a media aide to Atiku Abubakar, has criticized President Bola Tinubu's administration for allegedly harassing former Kaduna State governor Nasir El-Rufai, who has been in detention for 126 days. Ibe claims that El-Rufai's detention is a form of intimidation due to his defection from the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) criticized Bola Tinubu's administration for what it termed "grave insensitivity" following comments made by Presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga, who reportedly stated he does not perceive the hunger and hardship expressed by Nigerians. The ADC urged political figures Atiku Abubakar and Rotimi Amaechi to remain vigilant in protecting the electoral process.

Abdussamad Dasuki, a member of the House of Representatives for Tambuwal/Kebbe Federal Constituency, has urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to improve relations with Niger Republic to enhance security along Nigeria's North-West borders. This appeal was made following an award presentation from ADC elders in Sokoto, according to Leadership (NG).
