Ododo recalled that since 2018 when Yahaya Bello personally led security men to the troubled community, peace was restored except for recent development which he ensured that security men still stay to protect the people.

“It is sinful, shameful and punishable for any human being to take the life of another, as such act is against the law of creation and punishable by the creator.

According to him , contentious issues are discussed and resolved amicable rather than spilling the blood of innocent people over issues that are subject to settlement.

Ododo said he is mostly pained that women and children would be the most affected as they are weak and most vulnerable especially in time of crisis such as this.
