The APC leader added that Nigeria needs peace and stability in order to solve the problem of banditry in the country.

He said, “We need stability in the country, we need peace. Peace and end to banditry is extremely important because women are the first victim, the most vulnerable victims of banditry, violence and instability.

“Without peace and stability, we can’t build the nation as rapidly as we want. APC is progressing and that is where you should stay, that is where you should mobilize from”
