The African Democratic Congress condemned Vice President Kashim Shettima for addressing Palestinian concerns at the United Nations while ignoring severe domestic challenges. Deputy National Publicity Secretary Jackie Wayas released the Thursday statement criticizing the missed opportunity to secure international assistance for Nigeria's problems. The party highlighted how insecurity forces farmers from their land and drives food production downward across multiple states. Rising costs affect essential goods as violence disrupts agricultural activities throughout the nation.
Wayas pointed to armed bandits conducting public meetings in Katsina State as evidence of government failure. The opposition party accused leaders of seeking international attention rather than confronting urgent local matters. Agricultural disruption creates widespread hunger while security threats prevent effective food distribution systems. The ADC demanded leadership that prioritizes citizen welfare over foreign policy initiatives.
