Taking to his Instagram page, the activist criticised the President’s position that bandits and terrorists should surrender or face the Nigerian state, arguing that such an approach has not stopped ongoing attacks across the country.

“This is why I don’t have confidence in President Tinubu, because how are you saying that bandits and anyone sponsoring terrorism should surrender or face the Nigerian state?” he said.

He questioned why criminal activities continue despite repeated calls for armed groups to surrender, insisting that stronger and more decisive action is needed.

VDM lamented the continuous killings and kidnappings across the country, especially the recent Oyo attack on schoolchildren and teachers, saying Nigerians are no longer safe.

“Every day by day, the insecurity increases. They keep committing these atrocities. And yet you are waiting for them to surrender,” he added.

He also referenced past promises made during Tinubu’s 2022 campaign, where the President had vowed to eliminate criminal groups, questioning the progress made so far.

The activist further recalled the 2014 Chibok girls abduction, saying unresolved cases and ongoing insecurity show that lessons have not been fully learned.
