In a post on his verified Twitter handle, the former lawmaker said one of the villagers told him that their major secret is to identify informants of the assailants and crush them.

According to the Kaduna State governorship aspirant, residents of both states are teaming up against the criminal elements who have continued to kill and kidnap unsuspecting citizens.
