•By Admin
ABUJA – PRESIDENT Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Sunday received serious criticism for embarking on a journey to Europe amidst deadly bomb blast in Zamfara state.
Criticising the President, the National Publicity Secretary of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, said that Tinubu’s lack of care is scary.
The Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, in a statement on Sunday said that the President would depart Lagos on Sunday, December 28, for Europe, continuing his end-of-year break and ahead of his official trip to Abu Dhabi, in the United Arab Emirates.
Onanuga statement reads: “His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed AlNahyan, President of the United Arab Emirates, has invited President Tinubu to participate in the 2026 edition of Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week (ADSW 2026) Summit, which will take place in the emirate early in January.
“The weeklong summit is an annual event that mobilises leaders from government, business, and society to chart the next era of sustainable development.
“With the theme ‘The Nexus of Next: All Systems Go’, ADSW will connect ambition with action across innovation, finance, and people, showcasing how the world can move forward with confidence.’
“The President will return to the country after the Summit.”
Reacting to this development through his X handle on Sunday in Abuja, the ADC spokesman said, “PBAT’s lack of care is scary.
“In the wake of yet another deadly bomb blast in Zamfara, to which the President has not said a single word; on the back of an unprecedented foreign military attack on Nigerian soil; right in the middle of all the uncertainty it has provoked; with a confused and scared nation waiting for the President to speak to us and assure us that all is well, the next thing we hear is that the President has gone on holiday.
“What a President!”
