Journalist and broadcaster, Rufai Oseni, has criticised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu over his recent visit to Jos following the reported attack in Angwan Rukuba community on Palm Sunday.
This comes after a viral video showed the president consoling bereaved families while expressing concern about leaving early due to power supply issues in the state.
Speaking on Arise TV, Rufai questioned the level of sensitivity shown to victims, noting that the president reportedly stopped at the airport instead of visiting the affected communities.
“President Tinubu went to Jos over the recent attack but stopped at the airport. What level of insensitivity is this to the people of this country? Imagine telling victims that he would soon leave the airport because of light.
Why didn’t he go to the affected areas? I saw him telling a woman who lost her son that he understands her pain—no, Mr. President, you don’t understand her pain. Nobody does, even me,” he said.
He further questioned why the president did not visit the actual scenes of the incident, stressing that such gestures matter to grieving families and affected communities.
Rufai also pointed to the emotional moment where the president addressed a grieving mother who lost her only son, insisting that no one can truly understand the depth of her pain.
