He questioned the state of emergency given by President Goodluck Jonathan and the closing of borders to Cameroon, stating that the attacks have not stopped.
He explained that when the Lamido of Adamawa and some delegations where to go to Cameroon, they had to go through Taraba because the Adamawa border was closed. Recently, the Federal Government demanded the closure of the borders to Cameroon which he further questioned. “Which other border again was closed is it the one that was already closed or it was opened unknown to us and later closed”.
On Channels Television’s breakfast programme, Sunrise Daily, Mr Sajoh commended the efforts the soldiers had put in tracking and reducing the insurgency but also complained that these “terrorists attack have occurred for so long without being challenged”. “With the kind of movement they make in attacking, we need to question the ground and air surveillance we say we have in place.”
He also stated that during the attack, distress calls were made without success.
“I attempted to call the Police P.R.O and the Army P.R.O but their lines were not available,” Mr Sajoh.
He cleared the air on his disagreement with the Federal Government putting Adamawa among other states under the state of emergency, saying; “we accepted, we co-operated and worked with the security agencies but what we don’t agree with is the imposition of the state of emergency,” he added.
