He said this opposition politicians are doing this to prove that the APC are not in control and should be voted out in 2023.

He said; “Most of the bandits and Boko Haram attacks facing the northern part of the country are sponsored by some politicians who are enemies of the present APC government at both federal and state. 

During the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan, there were multiple bombs in Maiduguri, Kano and even Abuja.

He said the Kano bombing then killed more than 500 people while noting that Mosques, churches and roads were closed due to insecurity but today, God has prevented us from such insecurity but we have forgotten.

Today, politicians who are willing or intending to contest 2023 elections are sponsoring banditry because the way the bandits mastered how to operate guns and by how they specialised in ambushing soldiers, we should know that there is someone behind it.

They are saying we dislodged the PDP administration because of insecurity, so they want to make use of insecurity to also send APC away, that is why all APC should be vigilante.

He added that the job cannot be done by the military and the police alone.

He said they don’t have the numbers neither do they have all the equipment required to complete the fight alone.

Community members have all that it takes to inform and support the fight against insecurity.”
