Atiku and Obasanjo Reunite at WOTCLEF’s 25th Anniversary
At the 25th anniversary of the Women Trafficking and Child Labour Eradication Foundation (WOTCLEF) held in Abuja, Atiku Abubakar, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), reunited with his former boss, former President Olusegun Obasanjo.
WOTCLEF, an organization founded by Atiku’s wife, Mrs Titi Abubakar, has long championed the fight against human trafficking and child labour across Nigeria, and the event drew prominent figures in support of its mission.
Atiku expressed his joy at reuniting with Obasanjo, describing the experience as both meaningful and humbling.
He also took a moment to appreciate Obasanjo’s steadfast support for the foundation, recognizing how the former president’s dedication has greatly helped WOTCLEF’s efforts to tackle social injustices and uplift vulnerable populations in Nigeria.
In a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, Atiku captured his feelings about the occasion, sharing how walking beside Obasanjo at the celebration felt like a significant moment.
He acknowledged that Obasanjo’s ongoing commitment has been a pillar for WOTCLEF, enabling the foundation to continue its work in addressing critical issues affecting women and children.
The anniversary event itself was filled with speeches and activities reflecting WOTCLEF’s 25 years of impact.
Since its inception, the foundation has provided aid, education, and advocacy, seeking to empower those who are often overlooked.
Nigerian pastor and overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, addresses and reacts to the current happenings of the country regarding the kidnapping and the abductions.
The pastor urges the government on steps they can take to solve and help the people of the country. “The Nigerian government has a clear and urgent duty to protect these Middle Belt communities, who have carried the weight of violence for far too long.”
“Rather than play the ostrich and cover up clear terrorism as mere farmer-herder clashes, the Nigerian state has a responsibility to invade the camps of armed marauders who hide under the cloak of herdsmen of whatever ethnicity, and who invade defenceless communities and gleefully massacre unarmed men, women and children.”
US President Donald Trump criticizes the Nigeria government once again after the increase of insecurity over the past few days. The president stated that the government is failing to protect Christian communities from the attacks going on.
“Nigeria is a disgrace. The whole thing is a disgrace,” Trump said. “They’re killing people by the thousands. It’s a genocide, and I’m really angry about it. And we pay, you know, we give a lot of subsidies to Nigeria. We’re going to end up stopping.”
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar speaks out against the rising insecurity in the country. He urged the government to take action and claimed that it is not too late to declare a state of emergency.
He reacted after another news of abduction of students was announced on the 21st of November.
“How many more lives must be shattered before decisive action is taken? It is not too late for the government to finally declare a state of emergency on insecurity and confront this menace with the urgency it deserves.”
