00:00:00is
00:00:00of neutral, doesn't want to be seen to be guiding any
00:00:04sit from performing his work, because what
00:00:07of the president has done has not actually stopped the EFCC
00:00:10from performing their job
00:00:12of after the election, like I said, that
00:00:14of account will still be
00:00:15of under scrutiny, under scrutiny, that account will still be under scrutinyy
00:00:19after the election, maybe what EFCC has done, they have been politically
00:00:23right is to wait until after the
00:00:27election and begin to now. investigation or
00:00:31of investigate or ask those people that
00:00:33have made that withdraw if it is not the governor that has given because the governor has
00:00:36immunity okay you cannot question what the government has done but for
00:00:40those people committed the infraction other actors that other actors that committed the
00:00:44infraction they have answer to give a
00:00:47later a later date all
00:01:13my pattern short is that is to
00:01:16commend the president for the action that he has
00:01:20taken, because I, I can
00:01:24understand how the president
00:01:27a felt all over the social media. they been
00:01:30attacking
00:01:32the president and
00:01:33a accusing him of trying to rig an
00:01:37election, where in my view he has
00:01:40shown complete
00:01:43even-handedness, i have not seen anything that this president
00:01:47has
00:01:48of done that suggest that he wants to rig the election for his
00:01:52party, it's not getting involved,
00:01:56of of okay, it's not getting involved, he knows that the governor... is
00:02:00of someone who is bent on supporting him in
00:02:04of the presidential election, so he knows that he has to handle that
00:02:07situation like an old man
00:02:11who has
00:02:13of wisdom, so he he's been behaving
00:02:16of like somebody who is not really interested in
00:02:20the outcome, if his party wins he will be happy that his party has
00:02:24of won, but i have not seen any action taken by
00:02:28of this president that suggest..." that he wants to rick the
00:02:32of of election in favor
00:02:33of of his party, lot of people have been saying that, oh, he wants to reak the
00:02:37election, but lot of people say stupid things about this
00:02:41president, it doesn't mean that they have evidence,
00:02:44we've challenge people in the past, to say okay,
00:02:47you said this, you said that, some people calling themselves senior
00:02:52in lawyers, of but they
00:02:52of are never able even defend
00:02:55of some
00:02:55of the nonsense that they do, so this president has not shown
00:02:59any... sign that he wants to r the election in favor
00:03:03of his party, no, I've not seen that sign,
00:03:06he is behaving like, well, all
00:03:09of of these people involved are my people, and he has tremendous
00:03:12support in Nor state,
00:03:16we have the support
00:03:17of the governor, so he
00:03:19of knows that this is a situation that he has to
00:03:21handle, like is delicate situation that has
00:03:25to handle very
00:03:30of in well, you know, so now... people are happy because he has taken this decision, he
00:03:34of has literally washed his hands clean because of this singular
00:03:38decision that he has taken, so they will
00:03:42go to the election and whoever wins will
00:03:46of will have won because the people um wanted you to
00:03:50win, so i want to see the
00:03:53election free and fair
00:03:57um free of vote buying, but i know that...
00:04:00of wishful thinking, there will be so much vote buying, they
00:04:04could even set a record in terms of vote buying
00:04:07of in ashun this time around, because the the gladiators
00:04:11have deep pockets and they are desperate to
00:04:14win, so I know that if I'm asking that I should
00:04:18be no vote buying, I'm wasting my time and wasting my breath, so there
00:04:22will be vote buying, okay, but the the outcome must
00:04:26reflect
00:04:27of the aspiration, the wish. or the people
00:04:31and
00:04:32uh we want the violence to stop, because on both sides they are
00:04:36killing one another, it is not the violence is not limited to one
00:04:40side, only
00:04:41a dishonest person will say the violence is limited to one side, so we
00:04:45want the violence to stop, let our people really go
00:04:48and take part in that election, exercise their franchise and whoever is
00:04:52defeated will have been defeated because he
00:04:55of deserved to be defeated, defeated, this is what we want to see,
00:04:59okay
00:05:10in spite
00:05:10of of whatever? any the parties have stuck
00:05:14somewhere, they should not uh
00:05:17affect the conduct the election, they should not
00:05:21undermine the process of election, because when they undermine the processes the
00:05:24election, it will affect the integrity the result the
00:05:28election, let them sheet their sword and reduce their
00:05:32tendency to corrupt foters, i won't say foot buying,
00:05:35but each side has the tendency to want to corrupt puters
00:05:39to their side, but i think this is also a place where the... also should
00:05:43be that's what we are sayingc2 has lot of
00:05:47job to do, they should observe keenly and after the
00:05:51election let them come out with whatever they have like i said the other time it does
00:05:55not mean that the FCC will not scrutinize that
00:05:58account has been frozen even though if they dif
00:06:02tomorrow thursday which means other parties have 48 hours
00:06:05within 48 hours lot of things can happen like we said the other time
00:06:10lot of transfer money has been transferred. from one account to the
00:06:13other, it is also sequal to the election, yes, if you are
00:06:17transferring huge money,
00:06:18it is part of a strategy to induce voters,
00:06:22okay,
00:06:27now hope grows stronger it time captives regain their
00:06:30freedom, reinforcing this, the northern senators forum has
00:06:34praised the rescue of work kidnap victims in
00:06:38kara state, describing it as major
00:06:41victory, criminality, the forum said the
00:06:44operation highlights the effectiveness of intelligence led
00:06:48security efforts and strong community collaboration
00:06:51tackling insecurity. meanbko,
00:06:55congratulations are in order, yes, but how significant
00:06:59is this rescue operation the kidnapped victims in the fight against
00:07:03insecurity in our
00:07:04country? yes,
00:07:08is very significant, the...
00:07:13now the attack on the war community
00:07:16went was extremely
00:07:18brutal, so many lives,
00:07:22lives were lost in dozens
00:07:25and in spite of that they still
00:07:29took um people away,
00:07:32children, um, women, because they killed
00:07:36a lot the men, it was a brutal
00:07:40gun attack on the... sleepy
00:07:42community, now since they they took them
00:07:46away, they had been bosting that they are going to
00:07:50marry the beautiful ones amongst them and
00:07:54kill the rest, you know,
00:07:57so many people have been really worried that when
00:08:00are we going to find closure to this matter,
00:08:04and I'm happy that another
00:08:08intelligence led operation involving the...
00:08:12the police and civil defense and a handful
00:08:16of
00:08:18vigilantes gave us this
00:08:21breakthrough buse given the number of people in
00:08:24captivity this
00:08:27was one one
00:08:31abduction that we needed to find closure to so
00:08:34176 women and children largely the men had been
00:08:38killed and now what we need to do
00:08:41is to make it difficult for this mass abductions
00:08:45to take place, okay, anymore, we have to make
00:08:49it difficult, we have to secure the
00:08:53ungoverned forest that we have, we have to do our
00:08:57best, do lot of surveillance
00:09:01and reconnaissance missions across
00:09:05those dense forests so that these people will not
00:09:09find habitation, you can see that in, some
00:09:13the states where you do not have this kind of forest,
00:09:16this kind of mass abductions are not happening, because where
00:09:20are we going to keep them, where are they going to keep them? if you
00:09:24have d 270 people in lagos, where do you want to keep
00:09:28them? which forests are you going? you go
00:09:31even if you go e, where are you going to find
00:09:35the forest where you can keep them? we've
00:09:38left our forests unattended for too long.
00:09:42so these guys are literally taken over those for the kinji
00:09:46lake national park for example we've abandoned it
00:09:50for years, now it is the habitation for both the
00:09:54boko haram fighters
00:09:58and other terrorist groups especially
00:10:01operating the shiroro area so we need
00:10:05to yes you celebrate the release these
00:10:08people but we have to take steps to make it
00:10:12impossible for this mass abductions to take place
00:10:16and we have to also push aggressively for
00:10:20other people still in captivity, those them
00:10:23in in ' Bon states who are kidnapped
00:10:27in askiraba the other day, those those
00:10:30students, we have to find a way
00:10:33to um bring them out of
00:10:36captivity and they come up with solid,
00:10:40solid plan to
00:10:43exterminate um the threat
00:10:47that these terrorists are constitute to our country,
00:10:50especially in the northwest of our country and
00:10:53in um many parts
00:10:56the north central, especially Niger
00:10:59state, the largest state in our country.
00:11:03Okay, now today, should this rescue operation, be
00:11:07regarded as evidence that our armed forces are up to the task,
00:11:11but
00:11:12I was about to say that personally, I have to commend the
00:11:16men of
00:11:18com, they have actually tried with what they did with oyo and now
00:11:21following closely to kara, it means that Niger.
00:11:25are gradually increasing their capacity yes to contain criminal
00:11:29elements in any parts of Nigeria and it also means that those
00:11:33people think on govern spaces forest is their
00:11:36heaven it's a warning to them that their days are
00:11:40numbered I think we have to comment all aspects of our arm forces if it
00:11:44has been like this in last five years I think we will have stamp out
00:11:47terrorism
00:11:49band tree kidnapping Nigeria but today we what all these arm forces are doing
00:11:53they have shown enough capacity. and we also have to thank the government, the
00:11:57federal government for encouraging them, because without providing the
00:12:01necessary facilities like intelligence gathering, like ammunition, like
00:12:04weapons, like encouragement, like the the the the increase in
00:12:08their salary, whether we like it or not, they are the one that are protecting us, so the arm
00:12:12forces deserve encouragement, and it also shows
00:12:15that they are capable of doing bigger things, they
00:12:19are capable of securing Nigeria, because we are not going to ask any other
00:12:23national to come and secure our country. it is the arm forces and we
00:12:27could them i think now it wasn't just the arm forces alone local
00:12:30communities also do you think this local communities should play
00:12:34more form in nigeria's broader
00:12:37security because the challenges that we have
00:12:41in Nigeria today like dj said when i was so young we here we know
00:12:45of uh forest guard they called them ashogboba those who
00:12:49are keeping the forest so those people are not doing their job
00:12:52alone except with
00:12:54the uh mean conivance and support the communities,
00:12:58all communities, which means the job of securing our territory is the
00:13:02job of all Nigerians, all collective responsibility of all
00:13:06Nigerians, each local community, you have to be interested in who
00:13:09is in your territory, all traditional rulers, all lobers, all local
00:13:13gomes, they have to be interested who is occupying where in their
00:13:17treaty, we are not too big, America alone has about three times, about
00:13:21330 million people, we are just 220 million so...
00:13:25'I think all communities, all layers of of
00:13:28security intelligence, we should aness it to make sure that
00:13:32criminals who actually came from other countries, because
00:13:36there
00:13:37was a us report that about 30,00 militants entered Nigeria in the last couple of
00:13:41years, so we should eliminate all those people came from other
00:13:45country to disturb us, why should if
00:13:48you want to come and visit me in my house, you want to come and visit me and I give
00:13:52you bedroom to sleep and you tell me that'. you choose to sleep in
00:13:56the toilet or in the
00:13:57in the veranda, which means you have motive, so all those people who are
00:14:01not living within the town or within establish villages
00:14:05and communities, because the are villages and communities, they all know those who
00:14:09live there, so we should remove them from that place, by
00:14:12whatever means necessary, and we have to commend our arm forces, our
00:14:16arm forces should be commended, now taking off from where
00:14:20-
00:14:21you know stop, he talked about people coming into. the country
00:14:25karara's proximity to Nigeria's borders, what should we be
00:14:29doing to secure our borders, to secure to
00:14:33disrupt crossborder criminal
00:14:35networks?
00:14:39we have to take vigilance seriously,
00:14:43um, that is not not what we are
00:14:46doing, especially in Northern
00:14:49Nigeria, our
00:14:53borders in northern Nigeria, especially
00:14:55in the northwest are so poros
00:14:59and there are so many, so
00:15:03many unofficial uh
00:15:06borders that people
00:15:10are using to bring arms into our
00:15:13country from the black
00:15:15markets, arms constitute
00:15:19the oxygen of terrorists and
00:15:23bandits. and they bring in arms through the
00:15:27black market to keep them
00:15:30going.
00:15:33i saw a video that showed that through. the
00:15:37waterways weapons were brought into
00:15:41Nigeria through keby states, i think was the
00:15:45police that even cracked
00:15:48that particular efforts
00:15:52to bring in weapons, so Nigeria
00:15:55shares border with Bene republic through
00:15:59Kiby States and River Niger stretches
00:16:03through both both countries.
00:16:07"we need to police our waterways, we need to
00:16:11police our landbarders. once we are able to
00:16:15stop these weapons from coming in unrestrained
00:16:19the way they are coming in, and we
00:16:22tighten our border
00:16:24posts, definitely
00:16:28the rate at which people streaming will will be reduced a
00:16:32lot the people who come who are into
00:16:35bandity and terrorism. in our country, they are not
00:16:39Nigerians. Look at the lakurawas, for example, they came all the way
00:16:43from Mali, and they pretended
00:16:46to be interested in pure Islam, they were preaching
00:16:50to people, they were even apprehending uh bandits
00:16:54and cattle rustlers, today they
00:16:58turn full blown into a terrorist
00:17:01organization, and they are killing our people,
00:17:05they are targeting immigration of... officers they
00:17:08are targeting soldiers especially in
00:17:10keby, but they are also present in uh sokoto
00:17:14because um keby has
00:17:18boundary with sokuto state in some local governments,
00:17:22so we have to police our
00:17:24borders, we have to equip our
00:17:28arm forces to be able to stand up to these people,
00:17:32because some the weapons that they are carrying you
00:17:36will see that our regular security operatives don't even
00:17:39have those weapons, they've got money to
00:17:43buy gpmg, ak
00:17:4647, AK 49 from
00:17:50black market, so we also need to arm the people
00:17:54who have the responsibility to engage them now, and as I've
00:17:58said before, we can have state
00:18:01police, but if we not harm them sufficiently, they
00:18:05won't be able to stand up to these people, yes? 'I hear people say, oh,
00:18:09let's
00:18:09have state police after election, because this ignorance people
00:18:13think that they want to
00:18:15use state police for election, even if the president gives his
00:18:18assent today, there's no way you can put state police in
00:18:22place without recruiting, without training,
00:18:26without arming them, and all of that will take time, because you have to profile people that
00:18:30you are bringing in, how some these people
00:18:34reason, I don't understand, you already thinking that it is for'.
00:18:37election, come on, who will put state police in place
00:18:41within so short a time, it said you just want them to be
00:18:44slaughtered, they need good
00:18:47training, good soldiers, good policemen
00:18:51are products of good training, and that's the way
00:18:54it will be to for the state police, they must get good
00:18:58training, they must be well kitted, they must be
00:19:01armed, that is what will make put them
00:19:05a good position to be able to pro'.
00:19:07let us okay, so we need time to put all of this in
00:19:11place, all the people thinking, oh, they are trying to do it for election, they don't know
00:19:15what they are talking
00:19:16about,
00:19:20okay, all right, um, just in 30 seconds, i
00:19:23think
00:19:25you have to reduce the pressure on the infiltration of terrorists and
00:19:29criminals in nigeria, we have to equip the immigration officials more, because
00:19:33it is through the immigration that they come in, if they are reduced, if they they have
00:19:37more weapons, more ammunition, more capacity to restrict their
00:19:40movement into Nigeria, their inflow into Nigeria, it will reduce the pressure the
00:19:44Nigerian and forces on the police and other local things, so we have to also
00:19:48concentrate on the immigration, all these on police
00:19:52borders we have in Nigeria, maybe about 43 we have in the northern part of Nigeria
00:19:56and other areas, we have to police our borders where, when we police
00:20:00our brothers where we immigration officials who are well equipped, they will
00:20:03reduce the tendency these people to infiltrate
