He said the bandits have backing from some people in the country.
He stated this during an interview on Channels Television on Tuesday, November 25, 2025.
“He needs to put his house together, organize his government, and make sure that he knows the Police cover this country effectively because every LG in Nigeria has a police division. There is DPO, and some LGs that are heavily populated have more than one DPO.”
Adebayo said nobody can commit a crime and last for one month without government people cooperating with him/her.
"The first enemy of government is government, the first enemy of the people is government. You cannot commit a crime and last one week, one month if you don't have government people cooperating with you."
