‘WAKE UP FROM YOUR BED’ – PETER OBI CALLS OUT TINUBU AS BANDITS MURDER EKITI MONARCHS
Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s (LP) presidential candidate, has urged President Bola Tinubu to assume responsibility for addressing the dire security situation in the nation.
Obi made this statement in response to the horrific killings of Elesun of Esun Ekiti and Onimojo of Imojo Ekiti on Monday in a tweet on his official X Twitter.
The monarchs were reportedly attacked and killed by suspected bandits as they were leaving an Irele-Ekiti security conference, according to reports.
In reaction, Peter Obi, a former governor of Anambra State, asked the president to “wake up from his sleeping bed” and tackle the security problems.
He wrote, “We are saddened by the report that Elesun of Esun Ekiti and Onimojo of Imojo Ekiti were murdered earlier today, cause of death: Insecurity and Tinubu.
“We call on Tinubu to wake up from his sleeping bed and save Nigeria from total collapse. Don’t speak up today. Tomorrow, insecurity might consume you or a loved one.”
