Following the disturbing responses given by Barrister Adebayo Shittu during his screening exercise at the senate, he has made it clear that he is a religious fanatic and would not publicly denounce the Boko haram sect because he fears for his life. This is a shame and a slap on the face of our galant men and women who defend our country from this menace and to those who live in the affected regions. It is unbecoming for a prospective minister to sit on the fence with regards to such matters of national concern. There are also reports that this man was indicted in the religious riots that occured in time past in Oyo state. Nigerians thereby call on the president and members of the national assembly not to proceed with the confirmation of this individual.
