“If You Can’t Secure Nigeria, Step Aside” — Apostle Suleman Fires Warning to Tinubu Over Rising Insecurity

Cleric Speaks Out Amid Growing Security Concerns in Nigeria

Nigerian cleric, Apostle Johnson Suleman, has stirred nationwide debate after issuing a blunt warning to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu over the worsening insecurity situation in the country.

The outspoken preacher said leadership is measured by results, stressing that the protection of lives and property remains the most basic responsibility of any government.

“Security Is Not Optional” — Suleman’s Strong Message

In his remarks, Suleman criticized the continued wave of violent incidents, including kidnappings and attacks in different parts of Nigeria.

He argued that if the current administration is unable to bring the situation under control, then it should consider stepping aside for those who can.

According to him, insecurity has gone beyond political discussion and is now a daily reality affecting ordinary citizens, businesses, and education across the country.

Mixed Reactions From Nigerians

His comments quickly spread across social media, triggering a wave of reactions.

Some Nigerians supported his statement, saying frustration is growing as insecurity persists despite government assurances.

Others disagreed, arguing that insecurity is a long-standing national issue that cannot be resolved quickly by any administration, and requires patience and long-term strategy.

A Country Still Battling Security Challenges

Nigeria continues to face multiple security threats, including banditry in the North-West, insurgency in the North-East, and rising cases of abductions in several regions.

Successive governments have pledged reforms and increased funding for security agencies, but results remain a subject of public debate.

Growing Pressure on Government Response

As conversations intensify, pressure is mounting on the federal government to demonstrate clearer progress in tackling insecurity and restoring public confidence.

For many citizens, the expectation remains simple: improved safety, stability, and visible results on the ground.
