APC Senator mocks Tinubu over long queue waiting for palliative at Bourdillon
Senator Ali Ndume has mocked President Bola Tinubu over a viral video showing long queues of Nigerians seeking foodstuffs at his Bourdillon residence in Lagos on Christmas Eve.
Senator Ali Ndume, who shared the video on Wednesday via his official X account, said it highlighted the economic struggles facing the nation.
The video showed a mammoth crowd standing or sitting down in long queues at Bourdillon Raod in Ikoyi, Lagos, where Tinubu’s house is located.
Ndume, a member of the ruling APC, remarked, “Queues for presidential handouts at Bourdillon on Christmas Eve highlight a sobering reality. Poverty knows no tribe, religion, politics, or region. It is a universal challenge that demands collective action and sustainable solutions.”
The development comes in the wake of tragic stampedes at food distribution events in Oyo, Anambra, and Abuja, where over 50 persons died.
