The Secretary-General of the Yoruba Council of Elders, Dr Kunle Olajide, said this in an interview with our correspondent in Ibadan on Friday.
Olajide’s advice is coming following the comment of Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde that bandits from Mali were trying to cross into Nigeria through the Saki border.
The YCE scribe said it would be foolhardy to rely absolutely on the military to protect Nigeria borders based on what the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari ( retd), said recently that only God could protect the Nigeria border with Niger Republic.
