Former Minister Solomon Dalung Criticizes President Tinubu’s National Broadcast Amid Ongoing Hunger Protests
Solomon Dalung, former Minister of Youth and Sports Development, criticized President Bola Tinubu’s national broadcast, urging an end to the nationwide hunger protest.
Leading the protest in Jos, Plateau State, Dalung attended an open-air church service held by protesters on Sunday, August 4.
Speaking to journalists at the Old Airport Roundabout, Dalung described Tinubu’s speech as empty and threatening, asserting that it only strengthened the protesters’ resolve.
He stated, “The President did not say anything in his speech. He did not appeal to the protesters to stop the protest.
He only threatened them and told the security agencies to continue with the clampdown, shooting, and killing. He did not even address Nigerians. He was just talking to himself and members of his cabinet.”
It has been reported that Bola Ahmed Tinubu was absent at the commissioning of the Opebi-Mende Link Bridge, which took place on April 8, 2026.
However, Senate President Godswill Akpabio represented the President and carried out the ceremony.
As he commissioned the project, he stated “On behalf of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, I commission these projects.”
