Foreign trips: Tinubu, Shettima not prepared for governance – PDP

Published on April 07, 2025 at 11:49 AM

The Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Board of Trustees, BoT, Adolphus Wabara has said President Bola Tinubu and Vice President Kashim Shettima have shown that they are not prepared for governance.

Wabara accused Tinubu and Shettima of travelling abroad while Nigeria “burns”.

He described Tinubu and Shettima's foreign trips as “the height of executive rascality”;.

Tinubu had travelled to France for a two-week working visit while Shettima travelled to Dakar, Senegal, to represent the President during the country’s 65th Independence Day anniversary celebrations on April 4.

Reacting to the development, Wabara, in a statement said: “Mr President has the right to travel outside the country when necessary, he should duly hand over power to his Vice President in an acting capacity.

“It is absolutely not proper for the VP who should be the Acting president to also travel out of the country while Mr President is still away.”;

“It’s baffling to hear that the President and his Vice both abandoned governance and travelled out of the country at the same time, thus leaving the country headless.

“How can the country be burning, and the number one and number two citizens of the country be away? This can only happen in Nigeria.

“How else can a leader show disdain for the people he swore an oath to lead and defend? Leaving the country headless at a time when so many boiling issues demand presidential intervention is a misplacement of priority.

“Tinubu and his vice, have again, clearly demonstrated that either they are overwhelmed or simply not prepared for governance. They have shown that they have little or no regard for Nigeria and Nigerians.”;
