Sanusi said: “The bane of leadership in Nigeria is that the leaders are selfish; they only think of their families.”
“Those of us who think that public office is a place to enjoy ourselves should think again.”
He noted that poverty was one of the bane to security in the country.
“Poverty, lack of education is violence; it breeds violence because many segments of the society are denied access to basic amenities.”
He called on people in authority to prioritise the needs of their people.
He added that due to lack of allocation of resources infrastructure development has suffered.
The emir noted that security was a serious issue that every government must make it a priority.
He applauded the success the government has recorded in the fight against insurgency and said this should be extended to the issue of security.
“Once a state cannot provide security, it is not fit to be a state.”
The Inspector-General of Police, Mr Ibrahim Idris, said since Governor Bello came into power; the police had recorded outstanding achievements in the area of security.
“He was the first to donate vehicles to the Nigeria Police Force since I became the IG”
