The former Rivers state governor said:

The government. You have to discuss the issue of safety and security, who manages safety and security? The government.

“You have to discuss the issue of creation of opportunities, creation of employment, and all that. So, what you can tell is Nigerians get what they want. Nigerians get what they deserve. You don’t complain after.

“Nigerians at all-time have had an opportunity to vote, whatever you voted for is what you deserve, but again, let’s not go into politics”
