“We cannot afford to fold our arms when our issues are getting to a tipping point. Since we cannot carry arms and ammunition like those in the theatre or battlefield, we should play our own role of praying and lending moral and emotional support to those gallant officers working day and night to enable us sleep with our two eyes closed.

“In the last 10 days, we have exhibited piety through our series of supplications to the Almighty Allah. We can leverage on the momentum to plead for His mercies and intervention to rid our country of calamitous situations”, Ajia said.
