Nigerians now find it difficult to travel at their convenience, we can no longer sleep with our two eyes closed, there is fear to go to our various Offices and other businesses just because of the fear of the terrorists”.

The cleric stated that “Government especially Federal have had enough dialogues with our Traditional rulers, Religious leaders, Security Agencies and other stake holders. This is the time for real action towards smoking out these terrorists from their various hideouts.

“Those arrested should be prosecuted and let the law take its cause immediately to serve as deterrent to other criminals.The Presidency has said that it has names of those behind the insecurity across the country. What patriotic Nigerians are waiting for is the publication of names of those involved including their financiers for Justice to reign and for the Nation to move forward.

“And there should be no sacred cows as far as this is concerned and therefore, anybody found guilty should not be treated with Kit Gloves”, he cautioned.

The Baba Aladura also lamented that

As a Nation and human being, shedding of blood is not things to be condoned, life is sacred.
