So most of their arms that are being donated by \u2014 I don\u2019t want to be specific \u2014 the developed countries in the name of assisting us are compounding our problems in Nigeria because you find out that each average Chadian soldier has 20 to 30 arms underneath his bed.

I am here, I am standing here, and I am saying it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince we are going to collaborate with ECOWAS and other countries that are donating such arms to these countries, I think we should insist that they should either enact laws to govern the handling of these arms and ammunition or build an armoury for these countries or else we will not see peace.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on the bill to establish integration of private close circuit television (CCTV) to fight insecurity, Abubakar said: \u201cI think we should build a wall between us and these neighbouring countries or we should have serious surveillance or else we will not see peace in this country. I am telling you this, I have been in that area for years, so I know what is happening.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking earlier, Femi Gbajabiamila, speaker of the house, said \u201cknowledge would be drawn from everywhere,\u201d because security is an important national issue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe security agencies are welcome to make submissions but everyone is welcome to submit as well.
