Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has strongly criticized President Bola Tinubu's declaration of a state of emergency in Rivers State, calling it a "disgraceful" move that reeks of "political manipulation and bad faith." Atiku accused Tinubu of being a "vested partisan actor" in the state's crisis and blamed him for the "brazen security breaches" that led to the destruction of national infrastructure.
Atiku argued that Tinubu's administration has enabled or failed to prevent the chaos in Rivers, which has undone the hard-won peace secured by late President Umaru Yar'Adua. He condemned the move as an "assault on democracy" and an attempt to punish the people of Rivers State for political gain.
The declaration of a state of emergency in Rivers State has suspended Governor Siminalayi Fubara, his deputy, and all elected members of the state's House of Assembly for six months. Atiku's statement comes as a strong rebuke to Tinubu's actions, which have been seen as a drastic measure to address the state's political crisis.
