activities, from the Boko Haram insurgency to banditry and
kidnapping.

Sani Bello, the Niger State Governor, also on Monday lamented
that the Boko Haram had hoisted its flag in the Shiroro LGA of the
state, the Cable reports.

Contributing to a motion on the situation, Adeyemi had said the
country is facing the worst instability since the civil war.

“This is the worst instability we are facing. In fact, this is
worse than the civil war,” Adeyemi said.

But Tinubu interrupted him, asking: “Are you in PDP (Peoples
Democratic Party)? Are you a wolf in sheep’s clothing?”

Adeyemi, however, ignored her comments and continued, “We cannot
pretend that we are capable of handling the situation in our hands.
America, as powerful as they are, when the pandemic came, it came
to a point China came to their rescue.

“We shouldn’t pretend that we don’t need foreign support now.
Billions of naira have been voted for security services and nothing
is coming out of it.

“I’m a party man and I’m supporting APC but it has gotten to a
point that as supporters we cannot keep quiet.”
