He said in an interview with Arise TV monitored by NAOSNP, ”Whoever advised the Nigerian police to share biscuits and bottle water to protesters should be lauded. That was a masterstroke. Let’s be honest, if the police had gone there after these people with the jackboot, with the guns, with the tear gas, it would have been a messy situation.”
