 Umueri Crisis Claim: False, Election to Hold April 8 - Says Anambra East Mayor By Nwegbo Ifeanyi  The Anambra East LG Chairman, Hon.

Addressing journalists, Chinweze said Umueri is peaceful, with town union elections scheduled for April 8, 2026.

 The prolonged absence of president Tinubu at this time of national crisis, depicts failure-  Peter Obi 


Former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has raised concerns over the prolonged absence of President Bola Tinubu amid Nigeria’s worsening socio-economic challenges, describing it as a failure of leadership.


In a statement posted on his X account, Obi said Nigeria is facing a national emergency marked by rising poverty, hunger, insecurity, youth unemployment, and high infant mortality, yet the President has reportedly spent extended periods abroad, including 196 days outside the country in 2025. He lamented that Nigerians have not heard directly from the President since December 2025, noting the absence of a New Year address or national broadcast to reassure citizens.


Obi also criticised the President’s silence on major security developments, stating that Nigerians learned of critical incidents from foreign sources rather than their own leader.


 He argued that governance requires presence, transparency, and direct engagement, not press statements or proxy communications.


According to Obi, leadership absence undermines unity and trust at a time when the nation needs clear direction. 


He stressed that while Nigerians do not demand perfection, they deserve visible leadership, warning that silence in a time of crisis is “the loudest form of failure.”
