As Chairman of the Police Campaign Against Cultism and Other Vices in Lagos, he argued for what he calls the policing of love: food, shelter and mentorship for young people at risk, alongside enforcement. During the August 2024 protests he called for calm and proposed a joint committee of protesters, civil society and government.
