” It is a pity my people are experiencing disorderliness presently, but to be sincere, joblessness is what is causing all this issues, most of the youths causing this havoc are jobless which turned them to smokers and touts fomenting troubles here and there.

” What is happening now is owing to the lack of past government’s inability to engage our youths in decent employment opportunities, governor Seyi Makinde inherited this mess, but no excuse, it is now our duty to clear the mess and our government is not relenting in it efforts”, he added
