Speaking on the security challenges, particularly

Prof Wole Soyinka |
"When you encounter a faceless, ruthless army, which is what Boko
Haram, Ansar al-Dine, Al-Shabaab are - they move like an army, they think like
an army and they have only one objective - you are on the frontline. And on the
frontline you should have some kind of training of defending yourself. Citizens
should be trained to use arms." MORE.
