“I will not fold my arms and watch anyone or any group of people trying to sabotage the Government”.

“If criminals believe that Adamawa State is a place for them to operate, be warned that you will find this state too hot to stay. We are aware that some in our society are giving support to these criminal elements to upturn the peace in our state. They will not succeed. We will make sure that they don’t succeed”, said the governor.
