The media adviser and spokesman to the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Paul Ibe, has called on President Bola Tinubu to resign, arguing that the administration has failed in its constitutional responsibility to guarantee security and improve the welfare of Nigerians.

Speaking during an interview on ARISE NEWS on Tuesday, Ibe said resignation should not be viewed as a sign of weakness but as an act of patriotism when a leader is unable to meet the expectations of office.

“It’s not a sign of weakness for a leader to resign. It’s a patriotic act,” he said.

Explaining why he believes Tinubu should step down, Ibe argued that the government has not delivered on the core responsibilities of protecting lives and ensuring citizens’ well-being.

“Let me tell you why President Tinubu needs to resign. The primary responsibility of government is security and welfare. Are we more secure now than we were in 2023? The answer is no,” he stated.
