The Digest:

Adamawa APC criticized former Vice President Atiku Abubakar over his comments on the recent Madagali attack, calling his remarks "insensitive" and a deliberate attempt to politicize the tragedy. The party accused Atiku of exploiting tragedy for cheap gain

Key Points:
  • The Adamawa APC has criticised Atiku Abubakar over his comments on the recent attack in Madagali.
  • The party described his remarks as "insensitive" and a deliberate attempt to politicise the tragedy.
  • APC's publicity secretary stated Atiku sees tragedy as a "stage for cheap politics," not for reflection.
  • The party accused Atiku and the PDP government of laying the foundation for Nigeria's insecurity.
  • It claimed Atiku was silent when Boko Haram overran Adamawa communities during his party's tenure.
  • The APC asserted that peace is gradually returning under its leadership.
  • The party commiserated with the victims while reaffirming its commitment to defeating insurgents.
The exchange underscores how national tragedies are often filtered through a partisan lens, where accusations over past failures compete with claims of present progress, leaving little room for unified mourning or solutions.
