“We know that we cannot protect and defend ourselves, why don’t we go and look for help from other countries?

“What is shameful there to tell America or Britain or China… anyone to help us…we cannot solve our insecurity problem, be humble. Why do we fly out to treat ourselves in the UK, are you not ashame?”

“As for international communities, you’re seeing what is happening in the country at the moment, una dey do e no concern me, someday e go concern…if there’s war in this country, where are you going to house 200 million displaced Nigerians…,” he added.

“Where will the world accommodate us, so please take us seriously, if our government say we don’t need help, force it on us, we need it. see what happened in Syria that’s not up to our population during the unrest there.”
