“Hmmmm, I am afraid of the lack of security in Nigeria. The evil so many people are doing & some of them go scot-free & waste some people’s lives. It is sad.
“When you look at many Nigerians disappearing without traces, you will know this kidnaping issue is something government needs to step more deeply into.”
