Blaming opposition for hunger is ‘delusion’, Atiku tells Tinubu Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has accused President Bola Tinubu of blaming the opposition for the country’s economic hardship. He said the President was trying to evade responsibility for his administration’s policies. Tinubu had earlier on Saturday blamed his political opponents for hunger and poverty in the country while speaking at the All Progressives Congress presidential campaign flag-off in Kaduna. “I hear my opponent talking about hunger, poverty. Who created it? They did! They created the hunger, they created the poverty. We are trying to eradicate it,” the President said. Atiku, the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, said Nigerians were entitled to demand answers from the APC-led government over rising living costs, poverty, insecurity and questions surrounding public expenditure.

TENSIONS FLARED IN DIGBOI, ASSAM’S DIBRUGARH DISTRICT, AS A LOCAL BJP WORKER, KALPAJYOTI PHUKAN, WAS PUBLICLY SHAVED BY ENRAGED LOCALS IN TINGRAI MARKET.(PHOTO).


 Tensions flared in Digboi, Assam’s Dibrugarh district, as a local BJP worker, Kalpajyoti Phukan, was publicly shaved by enraged locals in Tingrai market.

 The incident followed a viral phone conversation that angered the Moran community amid growing friction over the upcoming panchayat elections.


The controversy began with a viral video showing independent candidate Junmoni Moran from Ward No. 7 of Borhapjan Panchayat confronting BJP MLA Suren Phukan, accusing him of violating the model code of conduct. The video gained wide attention across social media and news outlets.


Following this, Phukan’s supporters lodged an FIR against Junmoni Moran at Doomdooma Police Station, leading to her arrest and detention. While she was in custody, a separate audio clip emerged featuring a heated conversation between Congress leader Lachit Moran (alias Rajiv) and Nani Gopal Dutta, an aide to MLA Phukan. In the call, BJP worker Kalpajyoti Phukan was heard questioning Lachit Moran’s presence in Tingrai, which was perceived as threatening.


The recording provoked strong backlash from the Moran community. Locals dragged Phukan from his Bogapani home to the Tingrai market, where they forcibly shaved his head in protest. The video of the incident went viral, prompting police to intervene. A scuffle broke out between police and locals, and one individual, Akash Moran, was detained for allegedly inciting the protest. “We are conducting a preliminary investigation and cannot share further details at this moment,” said a police official.
