The Allied Peoples Movement (APM) has dared President Bola Tinubu to disclose what it describes as his actual destination.
However, in a statement, APM National Publicity Secretary Abubakar Yusuf said Tinubu should remain in Nigeria and address Nigeria’s problems.
The party warned that the announced lesser Hajj pilgrimage should not serve as a cover for other activities, insisting it should not distract from the challenges confronting Nigerians.
“Lesser Hajj involves prayer and supplications, but not an opportunity to do the unusual or as a cover to do other things,” Yusuf said.
Accusing Tinubu’s administration of worsening hardship in the country, the APM spokesman said the president should stay back and address the problems ordinary Nigerians face.
