Why is Bola Tinubu trending?

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is trending across social media and news platforms following renewed violent attacks in Plateau State, which left at least 51 people dead.

According to Punch, Tinubu has ordered a military offensive in response to the attacks, promising swift justice and better security. However, the public reaction has been mixed, with former Vice President Atiku Abubakar slamming Tinubu’s government over what he described as incompetence in handling Nigeria’s security crisis, as reported by Vanguard.

The tragedy unfolded in Bokkos and Mangu Local Government Areas, where gunmen launched coordinated assaults on communities. In response, Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang immediately convened a high-level security meeting, as covered by Channels TV, to address the escalating violence and restore calm.

Critics argue that the government’s reaction is too little, too late, while supporters highlight the president’s quick directive for military engagement. Nigerians are now debating Tinubu’s security policies, demanding more effective long-term solutions.

The spike in online discussions reflects both the grief of a nation and growing impatience over recurring attacks and perceived lack of accountability from the government.
