The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has criticized the recent visit of Bola Ahmed Tinubu to Kebbi State, expressing concern that the trip came at a time when residents are facing rising insecurity. The party argued that the situation on the ground requires urgent attention rather than ceremonial appearances or political engagements.

In a statement released shortly after the visit, ADC officials said communities in parts of the state have continued to struggle with security threats. They maintained that government efforts should be focused on protecting lives and property, insisting that citizens expect practical action instead of symbolic gestures from national leaders.

The opposition party also warned that ignoring security challenges could weaken public confidence in leadership. According to the group, addressing insecurity should remain a top national priority, especially in regions where people reportedly feel vulnerable. The party called on authorities to intensify security operations and provide reassurance to affected communities.

Despite the criticism, supporters of the visit say presidential trips can help draw attention to local issues and encourage federal intervention. The debate highlights ongoing political tension over how best to respond to security concerns, with many Nigerians closely watching how leaders balance official engagements with urgent national challenges.
