His words: “How can I dialogue with a murderer, pay ransom or pity a heartless soul who killed, maimed and raped innocent women at will, by granting him bail and according him human rights”.
“They should be killed if they deserved killing. All hands must jointly be on deck to fight the menace to the end.
“Now that we have a kind-hearted governor in our midst, who has been working round the clock to restore peace and tranquility in our dear state, the Federal Government must, therefore, support his efforts 100 percent to ensure that security come to stay in our state.”
