Aisha Yesufu has called on the National Assembly to begin discussions on President Tinubu’s impeachment, citing his silence over the mass killing of residents in Benue’s Yelewata community.
- Yesufu criticises Tinubu for failing to address or visit Benue after over 200 were killed in a herdsmen attack.
- The activist contrasted Tinubu’s silence with his swift condolences to India after a plane crash.
- She described his presidency as illegitimate, referencing the 2023 election.
- The Yelewata attack, confirmed by Benue Police, left dozens dead and sparked national outrage.
In moments of national mourning, silence from the top office feels like betrayal. Yesufu’s impeachment call underscores growing frustration with Tinubu’s perceived indifference to domestic tragedies.
If leadership means showing up in times of crisis, Yesufu is asking: where is Tinubu when Nigerians are buried in Benue?
