Discussing issue of insurgency in Nigeria on Sunday, on Channels Television's programme 'Politics Today', Mr Aliyu stressed that a Demagogue will appeal to sentiment, religion and emotions to do what he must do and a state's craftsman will see potentials in those resources that seem to be scattered and articulate them.
