‘’Be assured wonderful Nigerians that I am safe. With such outpouring of  love and concern my love for Nigeria is even growing in leaps and bounds.

‘’ As we pray, one matter seems worth bringing to God’s altar. When one of the Abiola’s called me to indicate how it felt like June 12 all over, point came up that some who claimed hero status for June 12 may now be plotting same’

‘’Pray that God enable people live their talk’’, he said.
