Speaking to journalists at the National Assembly complex in Abuja, Ndume alleged that the President has been fenced off and caged by certain forces. He expressed concern over the lack of appreciable action by the President in addressing the security challenges plaguing the country.
He stated that Nigerians are increasingly frustrated by the Tinubu-led government’s perceived failure to tackle poverty, insecurity, hunger, and other pressing issues.
He also highlighted the urgent need for the government to address food scarcity, warning that the unavailability of food could exacerbate the current crisis.
Ndume urged the President to become more aware of the realities facing the nation.
On the issue of the farmer-herder crisis, Ndume criticised stakeholders for not being sincere in addressing the problem, noting that contributions have often been driven by ethnic sentiments.
In an earlier interview, Ndume pointed out that the Federal Government’s inability to address these issues remains a significant challenge. He further alleged that some ministers are unable to meet with Tinubu to discuss important matters.
