A brief moment of disruption unfolded on Thursday in Kaduna State when a man broke through security as President Bola Tinubu addressed a gathering during an official commissioning in the state.

President Tinubu was in the state to inaugurate a number of projects executed by Governor Uba Sani’s administration, including a newly completed 300-bed Specialist Hospital and the rollout of 100 Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) buses.

The disruption occurred mid-speech, when the man made an unexpected move towards the stage. The President appeared momentarily taken aback, pausing briefly as security operatives quickly intervened and restrained the individual.

In a composed response, President Tinubu simply remarked, “Leave him alone,” before continuing his address without allowing the incident to derail proceedings.

The state governor, Sani, also signalled the security, dousing the slight tension.

Meanwhile, in a post on X.com (formerly Twitter), Tinubu’s Senior Special Assistant on Digital/New Media, Otega Ogra, lauded the operatives for their conduct.

“Handled with utmost professionalism by secret service agents without any disruption to Mr President’s speech or the event,” he wrote in response to a user.

Handled with utmost professionalism by secret service agents without any disruption to Mr President’s speech or the event.

FYI, Mr President is protected by some of the finest, well-trained and most professional officers and agents.

It was just an overzealous supporter in the crowd trying to get close to the President, probably to beg for alms. Hence, the "leave him alone" statement. Every single supporter in the venue were mobilised and brought in by the governor and his team, anyway. They even had t-shirts and fez caps. The likes of Uba Sani can't deliver Tinubu in the North.

My love for tinubu is undenying, I prayed and fasted for 3 days before I voted for him as God told me he will make Nigeria great.
Come the next election, I'll vote him again.

That person is a supporter or Mallam Nasir El-Rufai. He is not a supporter of Mr Peter Obi.
