“Yes, he can resign and hand over to his deputy to handle the affairs of this country. Otherwise, this country will be going down,” he added.
He further expressed his pains over the activities of suspected Fulani herdsmen who have continued to kill innocent Nigerians in his Local Government of Guma and other parts of Benue with the government doing nothing, not even reacting to such incidents.
“They can insult me, send EFCC to come after me. If they come here, I will take you (EFCC) to court again, and by the grace of God, defeat you as I defeated you before,” he said.
