  - Senior Special Assistant to President Buhari on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu says Nigerians can indulge in self-defense if they don't break the law 

   - He says the president is doing his best to listen to the people and do what is best for their safety among other things 

  - He disagreed with former chief of army staff and ex-minister of defense Danjuma that the military was condoning attacks across the country Garba Shehu, a presidential spokesman for Nigerian leader Muhammadu Buhari, has backed calls by an ex-army general Theophilus Danjuma that Nigerians should defend themselves when under attack, but on one condition. According to a report by Channels TV, Shehu said self-defense should be carried out within the provisions of the law of the country. Channels reports that Shehu made this statement while appearing as a guest on the TV station’s political programme, Sunday Politics, however, warned that it must be within the ambit of the law.

He said:“This is a listening government and the reaction then was of silence to say to them that we have heard you. “We will listen to the useful advice you have given us. We will take what we can use from what you have said.” PAY

NAIJ.com recalls that former minister of defence General Theophilus Danjuma (rtd), on Saturday, March 24, advised Nigerians to defend themselves against killers in the country. Danjuma made the call while speaking at the maiden convocation of the Taraba State University, Jalingo, the Taraba state capital. Danjuma says there is an attempt at ethnic cleansing in rural states in the country. “Taraba is a mini Nigeria with diverse ethnic groups living together peacefully, but the peace in this state is under assault. “There is an attempt at ethnic cleansing in the state and of course, some rural states in Nigeria. “We must resist it. We must stop it. Everyone of us must rise up,” he said. Should Nigerians pick up arms to defend themselves against herdsmen?
