According to him, the high level of insecurity has further shown the need to have a state police and “Tinubu must not shy away from that.”

“We are failing on security and I want to call on the President to invite all elders to come for a discussion. The issue of insecurity has become a national calamity.

“The President has to wake up. I pity him because he has this deluge of crises. Unfortunately, he cannot complain because it is the same party that is in power.

“The whole nation is in a state of quagmire. This is not an issue of APC or PDP, everybody is affected.”
