small crisis between two persons with one attacking the other think it best to
use the word war to report such an incident, Of course rather than quell that
crisis ,it will fuel it the more” he argued.
According to him , Nigerians must collaborate at this very
crucial period of its history to check

of security as very dangerous and uncalled for especially in the present lock
jam we all find ourselves in the country.

it does not know age, gender, region or even religion .Everybody have become a
victim in this whole thing and it is quite sad”,the governor submitted .

please speak as a nation united in one common voice and working together with
the federal government to put and end to the security challenges and also
