Nigeria in Crisis, But Presidency Focuses on Defending Meal Photos – Atiku

Nigeria is in crisis, yet the Presidency seems more concerned with defending photos of the president’s meals in Paris. Atiku Abubakar, the former Vice President, has strongly condemned this as a clear example of misplaced priorities. 

Through his aide, Phrank Shaibu, he accused the government of being out of touch with the suffering of Nigerians, who are struggling with hunger, insecurity, and economic hardship.

While communities in Niger State and other regions face violent attacks and families can barely afford food, the Presidency is busy arguing about camera phones, image quality, and photo editing. 

Atiku dismissed their outrage over claims that the images were AI-generated or fake, pointing out that their credibility is already in question due to past controversies.

He stressed that Nigeria is in deep trouble, and instead of engaging in public relations distractions, the government should focus on addressing the real emergencies—hunger, insecurity, and economic collapse. 

Nigerians expect urgent, humble, and decisive action, not photo debates.
