Melaye knocks Tinubu for omitting most critical issues in his Independence Day speech

Former senator Dino Melaye criticized President Bola Tinubu for failing to adequately address the security crisis during the Independence Day speech. Melaye stated that Tinubu mentioned insecurity only once, despite over 1,000 Nigerians being held by terrorists in various forests across the country. He also pointed out that farmers are unable to access their lands due to insecurity, which should have been a major focus of the president's address. Bandit attacks in Kaduna State resulted in one death and several abductions.
