“We have come to the end of impunity and immunity and enough is enough”, he added.

Dr. Jonathan who spoke through the Minister of Education, Prof, Ruggayyatu Rufai while expressing concern over the protracted crises in the State warned that government can no longer fold its hands while a few disgruntled Zealots wreck havoc on innocent citizens.
