Kano Politician Blasts President Tinubu for Ignoring Insecurity Victims, Says “He Prefers Weddings Over Condolence Visits”
Alhaji Ibrahim Ali Amin, popularly known as Ibrahim Little — a former Kano governorship candidate and chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) — has taken a swipe at President Bola Ahmed Tinubu over what he described as the president’s lack of empathy for victims of insecurity across Nigeria.
Speaking in an interview reported by Daily Post on Tuesday, October 7, 2025, Little expressed disappointment that Tinubu has failed to visit communities devastated by terrorist attacks, banditry, and communal clashes since assuming office.
According to him, the president’s absence from crisis-hit regions sends a troubling message to citizens who have lost loved ones, homes, and livelihoods. He accused the president of prioritizing attendance at weddings and funerals of political elites instead of consoling grieving Nigerians.
“In the time since Tinubu took office, he has never travelled to any region affected by Boko Haram or banditry. On the other hand, he was in Kaduna for the wedding of a senator and in Plateau for a burial,” Little said.
He added that Nigerians expect their leader to demonstrate compassion and leadership by visiting affected areas to provide moral support and renew public trust in government’s commitment to tackling insecurity.
Little maintained that the president’s approach makes it appear as though the government is detached from the suffering of ordinary citizens. He urged Tinubu to show true statesmanship by reaching out to victims of violence, insisting that such visits would go a long way in rebuilding national confidence.
