The 2023 presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party, SDP, Adewole Adebayo, has asked President Bola Tinubu to take responsibility of last Friday’s attack on Benue communities that killed no fewer than 200 people.
Adebayo stated this on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily. According to him, those that were killed died because of the President.
He argued that if those working with the President had done their work effectively, the unfortunate incident would not have happened.
“The basic thing is that if you realize that those people died because of you, because you are the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, you are the one running the police, running the Armed Forces. If you had done your duty, the people working for you, in uniform and out of uniform, had done their duty – that thing would not have happened.
“So first thing you do is to take responsibility, and then you let your protocol people know that I’m going to this event. I’m going only with people who are relevant to security and the local people there, okay, and as we are going make sure that you have given me sufficient briefing about the families who lost their relatives,” he said.
