Tinubu says poor planning, not economic hardship responsible for recent stampedes

President Bola Tinubu has attributed cases of stampede at palliative distribution centers in Nigeria to poor planning, rather than economic hardship.

Tinubu while speaking at a media chat in Lagos on Monday evening, argued that the multiple stampedes which have claimed over 60 lives were not a reflection of widespread hunger as claimed by many critics of his administration.

He said there is hunger everywhere citing examples of food banks in the United States and the United Kingdomhttps://nairametrics.com/2024/12/24/tinubu-says-poor-planning-not-economic-hardship-responsible-for-recent-stampedes/
