Governor of Ondo State, Rotimi Akeredolu, has said that he is not disturbed over whether ‘Operation Amotekun’ may affect his chances of getting a second term in office.

Akeredolu, who is Chairman of South West Governors Forum, said he was only on the path of national cohesion with the collaborative internal security by the formation of Amotekun and not for any political ambition.

In a statement by his spokesman, Donald Ojogo, the Ondo State governor said that he will not be discouraged by the de-marketing of the regional security outfit aimed at addressing the daunting security challenges in the South-West.

He said, “In the case of Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu (SAN) of Ondo State, it is pertinent to state that he is not perturbed by the possible consequences of leading governors of the South-West in the formation of Amotekun.

“In particular, fears and apprehension have been expressed in many quarters that his role in the formation of Amotekun could affect his second term chances.

“This is far from the truth because Governor Akeredolu is on the path of national cohesion through collaborative internal security.

“The decision taken in respect of Amotekun was in the interest of the entire country and not the South-West alone.

“The political insinuations and blackmail are the required ingredients needed to make it credible. But such will not discourage the governor in any manner.”

Hm. When a politician in Nigeria is ready to sacrifice his political ambition for the ppl's welfare, he is an exception from the rest who are bloody marauders

So we still have people like this man in southwest. Better day ahead of us in the region. Thanks sir

If APC were to present this man as presidential candidate, I would personally vote with my two hands and feet for him

He is the kind of person you can call Yoruba leader, anytime someone mentions Tinubu here as Yoruba leader na curse we go curse am. We know our leaders and our leaders know us. Governor carry on.

How many Likes and Share for this bold, courageous and self-less Leader please.

With Someone like this, I'll gladly cast my vote..

"The world suffers a lot not because of the violence of bad people, but because of the silence of good people."

I think it's time we started referring to Governor Akeredolu as a National Leader and not southwest leader. Governor Akeredolu could have chosen to be silent Just like Tinubu, Sanwo-olu, Dapo Abiodun and Gboyega Oyetola or remain silent because of his 2nd term ambition, but he continues to prove to be a selfless Leader. History will be kind to him!

Bro, you guys are really trying with una PR and image laundering of Aketi. Lol. Una no even hide am. E go on soun. Hehehe.

no section of the Nigerian constitution makes provision for either state or regional police, yoruba miscreants have no authority whatsoever to raise such an illegal army.









SW (Yorubas) are trying to be smart by half and thinks nobody sees through the wooly circle. Maybe he thinks others are suffering from schizophrenia like some do.


Amotekun as a regional force cannot stand and must be nipped to the mud. Yorubas want regional Amotekun but are smartly avoid constitutional review which is the root cause of all the crises and where all the problems lies and same. Constitution is what AGF, police and the rest stand to counter Amotekun.
















Amotekun is not real. If they are real and sincere they know what to do and get their regional force.

You're dealing with people that always try to play smart.

Everybody is having same insecurity and what we need is a permanent not a stylish temporary solutions

Kudos to him for his statement but know that if it cost you your seat then the south west people will not forgive tinubu for his silent on this matter because of presidential ambition.

COURAGE!

People over power.

Good thing Arakunrin for standing up for the Yoruba nation.

History will be kind to you for protecting your people against terror and hegemonic machinations.

Those sitting on the fence don't realize that power is ephemeral.

They will soon realize that personal political ambition at all cost - at the cost of human lives - have consequences.

On this path, governor akeredolu has proven to be an indespensible omoluabi and I am proud to call him My governor!

My brother, i'm simply pointing out the obvious ni o. Abi which of the thing i said is wrong? My Governor is a true Omoluabi!

I love what Aketi stands for. Yorubas are solidly behind you in this mission. Amotekun has come to stay.

Amotekun is illegal and must not allow to see the light of the day .


It's terrorist in disguise and must be stopped by all means.

Nothing can move u my governor. We Yoruba are wise, our security first before anything. No Fulani can colonize us again. Politics apart, our collective interest first. We will fight this to finish. No one can stop us, we are that resolute.

Na Man you be!
.

Chop Knuckle!

Who else here does not care about this?

You just won reelection sir.

Continue standing with the people.

This is a true leader. Akeredolu is a national leader.


He has refuse to chicken out or remain silent like other south west leaders. God bless you sir.

I love Aketi. Am from Gombe

Correct man.
This man just stylishly got himself a 2nd tenure cos he'll be seen as a man of the people now unlike thiefnuubu and fake pastor Osunbade who are ready to sell their ppl for their ambitions.
He has always been a silent performer shaaa

Ride On my Governor

Mr talk and Do governor

Imagine if if each state recruits 10000 each, Amotekun armed volonteers , that means Fulani are completely finished, i wonder what they would lash on to survive


.

Good

A man of the people unlike Tinubu that would prefer just five souls to remain in southwest while he becomes the President
