@GovAyoFayose
Killing of over 30 people in an operation that lasted for over one hour cannot be regarded as mere robbery,it is terrorism! It further shows that under this govt of President Buhari, the country is not secured and Nigerians are now at the mercy of killers. It is sad, very sad.”

@renoomokri
9 policemen died during the daring Offa bank robbery. Not a word of condolence from President Buhari. He even traveled to Katsina. Imagine what this does to the morale of the Police? They are not paid well and their Commander-in-Chief does not give a damn when they are killed!”
