I like to see these things as beneath me to be honest, Thieves are not meant to move me . I would buy another phone and move but you, you still would keep having to steal to survive . Terrible . — Ric Hassani (@ RicHassani ) February 13 , 2021 The 32 - year- old musician also said that the incident is yet another indication of the worsening situation of insecurity in the country .

I honestly feel fixing Nigeria will take an insane amount of work that is truly beyond any of us but , we should all play our part to really really help this country , because it really needs serious help .
