Why I abandoned bullet proof cars- Governor Shettima

Borno State Governor, Kashim Shettima said he abandoned the use of bullet proof cars as an act of sympathy with the suffering masses who had no means of self protection from terrorists. Shettima stated this on Sunday in an interview with newsmen in Maiduguri.

He said that the action was also aimed at showing that terrorists have no super natural powers.

"We have to dare the terrorists; I have bullet proof cars, but I do not use them; I want to be exposed to the elements as the ordinary people do," Shettima said.
