These things are treating human beings like they're chickens. You would have thought given the troubles in Borno/Plateau/Bauchi, that those States would be crawling with police, SSS and undercover agents so anyone up to no good would find it hard to escape .

Oh!! And if they haven't yet thought of banning Okada in these states, then i don't know what they're waiting for.
