Phrank Shaibu, aide to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has slammed the Presidency for prioritizing the President’s Paris lunch engagements over pressing national issues like hunger, insecurity, and economic decline.
Shaibu in a statement described this as “tone-deafness in power,” emphasizing that Nigerians need leadership, not explanations about meals abroad.
He questioned the Presidency’s response to skepticism over photo manipulation claims, stating that an administration with credibility issues shouldn’t be surprised by public doubt.
Shaibu urged the Presidency to focus on addressing Nigeria’s challenges rather than public relations theatrics.
The criticism comes amid worsening economic and security challenges in Nigeria, with many citizens struggling to afford basic necessities.
Shaibu’s statement reflects growing concerns about the government’s priorities and its ability to address the country’s pressing issues.
