He lamented that despite the growing hardships, Tinubu appears unconcerned by the plight of the citizens.

“The haphazard and disingenuous approach of the current administration to fuel subsidy management has been the reason we are in this current economic crisis in the country.

“It is even more worrying that T-pain is undisturbed by the hardship in the country,” Atiku wrote.
