Yul Edochie Blasts President Tinubu Over Rising Insecurity And Kidnappings

Yul Edochie has openly criticized President Bola Ahmed Tinubu over the escalating insecurity and economic hardship in Nigeria.

Speaking directly to the president, Yul said bandits are “gradually taking over the whole country, spilling the blood of Nigerians at will without consequences,” adding that kidnappings are happening daily and living conditions have become unbearable. He questioned whether this is the “renewed hope” Nigerians were promised.

In a follow-up, he urged Tinubu to act decisively: “You have the capacity to crush these bandits and kidnappers who are killing Nigerians daily and even posting it on social media. It’s a slap on your face, Mr. President.” He highlighted that many Nigerians are now afraid to travel or move around as innocent lives continue to be lost and called on the government to take all necessary measures, including seeking foreign assistance, to stop the violence.

Yul’s statements, coming from a former supporter, have ignited nationwide conversation, reflecting the growing frustration of citizens over insecurity, kidnappings, and the rising cost of living.
