"Yesterday, we stepped out to protest against the worsening level of insecurity in the country. To my greatest surprise, President Tinubu and his supporters had rented a crowd of counter-protesters, the majority of whom were women with children at home."

When you appoint a leader that is dull, everybody in that nation will look as if they are dull; but Nigerians are brilliant people…”
Insecurity: Nigeria Cannot Continue Like This
I received with deep shock and sadness the tragic death of retired Major General Rabe Abubakar, who reportedly died while in the custody of kidnappers. Earlier, before this heartbreaking news, I also received disturbing reports of renewed bandit attacks in Sokoto and Kwara States.
The armed bandits reportedly blocked a market route in Sokoto and abducted traders, while terrorists invaded communities in Kwara State, kidnapping scores of citizens and killing innocent people, are heartbreaking and alarming. These incidents are not isolated tragedies; they are clear manifestations of the deepening security crisis confronting our nation.
But particularly painful is the reported death of Major General Rabe Abubakar, a distinguished military officer who dedicated a significant part of his life to defending Nigeria and protecting its citizens. It is tragic that a man who served his fatherland with honour, rose through the ranks of the Nigerian Armed Forces, and retired after years of meritorious service, would meet such a heartbreaking end at the hands of criminal elements. His death is a national tragedy and a sobering indictment of the insecurity that has engulfed our country.
When traders can no longer travel safely to markets, farmers cannot access their farms, communities live under constant fear, and even retired senior military officers are not spared from the menace of kidnapping and violent crime, it becomes evident that our nation is facing a grave security emergency.
Security remains the foremost responsibility of any government. Every life lost, every citizen abducted, and every community displaced represent a painful failure of our collective duty to protect the Nigerian people. The recurring attacks in Sokoto, Kwara, and many other parts of the country demonstrate that insecurity is not only persisting but spreading in both scope and intensity.
I once again urge the Federal Government and our security agencies to move beyond rhetoric and adopt a more proactive, intelligence-driven, technology-based, and coordinated approach to tackling insecurity. We must strengthen our security architecture, improve intelligence gathering, secure our borders, equip and motivate our security personnel, and ensure that those responsible for these heinous crimes are apprehended and brought to justice.
A nation where citizens live in fear cannot prosper. A nation where economic activities are disrupted daily by criminal elements cannot attract investment, create jobs, or guarantee a better future for its people. We must urgently reclaim every part of our country from terrorists, bandits, kidnappers, and all criminal gangs threatening our collective existence.
My heartfelt condolences go to the family of Major General Rabe Abubakar, his former colleagues in the Armed Forces, and all Nigerians who have lost loved ones to insecurity. I also sympathise with the families of those killed, those abducted, and the affected communities in Sokoto, Kwara, and across the nation.
The recurring tragedies and embarrassing security failures we continue to witness make the quest for a New Nigeria not only necessary but inevitable. We must build a nation where every citizen can live, work, travel, and pursue legitimate economic activities without fear.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO

I am deeply saddened by the tragic death of retired Major-General Rabe Abubakar, in the hands of his terrorist captors in Katsina State.
After a distinguished career of service to the nation, General Abubakar deserved a peaceful retirement. His tragic passing underscores the severe and worsening state of insecurity across Nigeria.
The continued loss of both serving and retired military officers, as well as other Nigerians to terrorists has become far too frequent and must not be normalised.
I urge the relevant authorities to intensify efforts to secure the immediate and safe release of his wife, and others who remain in captivity.
My heartfelt condolences go to his family, friends, and associates. - RMK
“Tinubu is not the owner of Nigeria, he’s not a lord, he’s just a public servant, Nigeria has been here before him, if he doesn’t resign honourably, we’re going to resign him through voting 🗳️. We’re not scared of t£argas and bull£ts”

“During the administration of former President Obasanjo, refilling a 12.5kg gas cylinder reportedly cost about ₦1,800. Under former President Yar’Adua, it rose to about ₦2,000, while during former President Jonathan’s tenure, it increased to around ₦3,000. Fast forward to the APC government that promised ‘change’; under former President Buhari, refilling the same 12.5kg gas cylinder cost about ₦11,000. Today, under President Bola Tinubu, it costs as much as ₦27,000 in some places.”

This is Major General Rabe Abubakar the former Director of Defence information.
He was kidnapped on the 30th of May 2026.
They killed him.
This is the 4th Major General terrorists have killed this year alone.
Insecurity has reduced by 81% according to liar in Chief of the Armed forces
More Than One Year Later, The $250 Million Tractors Tinubu’s Government Imported from Belarus Are Still Parked and Rotting!
It is beyond belief that more than N300 billion worth of equipment meant to empower farmers across the country are lying in waste, in Abuja, over a year after they were surreptitiously imported from Belarus.
What’s worse? See the details of the deal…!
A Thread!
TINUBU'S FAILURE HAS GONE INTERNATIONAL... The shortcomings of this administration is on the lips of everyone around the world. You paid 14bn to lobbied Trump but has no money to procure equipments to fight insurgency? Shame on this govt.
I just saw the VIDEO of Nigerians in the street chanting “Tinubu Must Go” alongside protesters.
Clearly, Nigerians on the streets who hat£ Tinubu outnumber those on social media.✍️
“Tinubu will go, he’ll go but there’s still be t£rr0r!sts and now it’s time for us to chase them of out our country !! Enough is enough we’re marching and we’re saying Band!ts, T£rr0r!sts, k!dnapp£rs must go!!!”
