“We call on Nigerians to support security agencies and the government.

“Security is no longer for government and security agencies; there is a need for collaborative efforts and partnerships.

“You continue to stay in your comfort zones and continue to blame security agencies for all, but the information that the security agencies need have you brought it?

“All those bad people are part of our communities; they live in our neighbourhoods. If you know one, tell the security agencies about him.

“If you have not done all these, it’s time for us to have a rethink; it’s time for us to rededicate ourselves to building a country that is devoid of any insecurity,” he stated.
