The former Vice President of Nigeria said, “It is unprecedented that the two leaders will be absent from the country at the same time”, adding, by asking a question “who is in charge of government at this point?”
According to Atiku: “I have been inundated by reports of the absence of the president and vice president from the country. It is unprecedented that the two leaders will be absent from the country at the same time, especially now that the nation is faced with daunting challenges. The question that readily comes to mind is who is in charge of government at this point, or is it right to assume that we are on autopilot?”
