Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has described as unusual the absence of President Bola Tinubu and his deputy, Kashim Shettima, from the country at the same time, especially now that the nation is faced with daunting challenges.
Atiku said he has been inundated by reports of the absence of the President and Vice President from the country.
In a post on his X handle on Monday, Atiku said one might be right to assume that the country is on autopilot.
He said: “I have been inundated by reports of the absence of the president and vice president from the country. It is unprecedented that the two leaders will be absent from the country at the same time, especially now that the nation is faced with daunting challenges. The question that readily comes to mind is who is in charge of government at this point, or is it right to assume that we are on autopilot?”.
News report explains that the visit by Shettima to the United States of America, for the US-Africa Business Summit, has created a sort of leadership vacuum at the nation’s seat of power as Tinubu is yet to arrive Nigeria, six days after attending the Special World Economic Forum WEF meeting.
