“Abdusalam is there talking every time. Nigeria does not lack people. Let the President come out to see his people. Let him invite his people and discuss with them, what do we do with our country?”
Clark also backed the call for the creation of state police and restructuring of the nation, although he admitted that some states might find it difficult to pay police personnel.
