He challenged politicians from both the ruling and opposition parties to subject their telephones to security checks, stating that he is confident many acclaimed statesmen will be implicated in the kidnapping of the school girls.

Shinkafi urged politicians who will stop at nothing to oust Matawalle, to wait their time and do it by the book, rather than encourage criminality in the state.

He asked the youths not to allow themselves to be used as stooges for burning down the nation.

The APGA chieftain also called on the government to come up with initiatives that will help in empowering the youths and create job opportunities for the teeming unemployed in the country.
