Junaid should shove his opinion down his ass. he is irrelevant

He claimed everything in Lagos was done by FG. What is the contributions from Northern region to the development of Lagos? Nothing. The internally generated revenue from Lagos for several years till date is used an addition to oil money to develop Abuja and the North, their brothers from Chad and Niger are also parasites on Southern Nigeria wealth.

The South East and South South are fully in support of Amotekun. The South is fully ready to break from Nigeria, it is the Yorubas that is frustrating the South. No amount of blackmail will make the IBO's to support the North against self determination and freedom. This is the period we have been waiting for.

We are ready to enter into alliance with Israel and US to free ourselves from terrorism and oppression

Amotekun is not even enough... fvcking headslamming cowfvcker

Bethel4Life:
Lol amotekun is here to stay

I wish.
APC will send Osinbajo to help kill off Amotekun. Just watch.

But something tells me that when APC and Buhari makes certain confirmatory noises of Tinubu and the Yorubas receiving the APC Presidential ticket in 2023, Amotekun will die a natural death.

Amotekun and civil war kee you there! !

Renerd:
If care is not taken they will drag us into another civil war and I don’t believe the country can survive another civil war.


There will be nothing like another civil war.

Don't mind him.
Did the Soviet Union have a civil war before their break up?
Once all the units say they are tired of this contraption it is game over.

Collapse of Soviet Union

1. Collapse of Communism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe (1989)
2. Détente: Cooperation between Superpowers - During the Cold War President Nixon and Brezhnez conducted SALT (Strategic Arms Limitation Talks) conferences and signed a treaty limiting the number of missiles each country can have.

3. USSR and Afghanistan Cooperation/Détente Ends • 1979-1988 • USSR backed the Afghan government; the US backed the Mujahedeen rebels • US boycotted the 1980 Olympics in Moscow • 14,000 Soviet dead; 1+million Afghans –Over 5 million Afghans fled (more than 1/3 of the population) –10-15 million land mines still in Afghanistan –Soviets withdrawal defeated
4. - Soviet economic collapse - Nationalism in Warsaw Pact countries - Tearing down of Berlin Wall - Breakup of the Soviet Union Collapse of Communism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe

5. Nationalism in Warsaw Pact Countries 1. Gorbachev’s pullout from Afghanistan and his policy of Non-Intervention gave rise and momentum to Warsaw Pact nationalism movements. 2. Soviet/Warsaw Pact countries resented Soviet control and wanted to direct their own governments.
6. Tearing Down the Berlin Wall 1. East Germany elected a more moderate Communist government, but many not satisfied; allowed people to leave East Germany 2. November 9, 1989 – the Brandenburg Gate opened and people began tearing down the wall 3. Tearing down Berlin Wall symbolized and helped lead to fall of Communism in Eastern Europe; East Germany & Czechoslovakia 4. Gorbachev and President Reagan given credit for being most responsible for the end of the Cold War

7. Ronald Reagan: U.S. President 1980-88 “Tear down this wall”
8. Brandenburg Gate Fall of the wall news broadcast
9. Soviet Economic Collapse 1. Over-spending on arms race weakened government & economy 2.Soviet leader, Mikhail Gorbachev tried to reform the USSR economy in two plans a. perestroika – restructuring of the Soviet political and economic system - Weakened Russian economy in short-term b.glasnost – “Openness” freed public access to information after decades of heavy government censorship 3. Gorbachev encouraged reform in other 15 Soviet Socialist Republics: new countries 4. Hard-line communists attempted a coup against Gorbachev – failed 5. U.S.S.R. crumbles; Gorbachev = the last leader of the USSR 6.Boris Yeltsin, with support of many who wanted continued reforms, becomes President of Russia Mikhail Gorbachev U.S.S.R. Boris Yeltsin Russia

10. Break Up of Soviet Union 1. Soviet Republics, one-by-one, broke away from Moscow and declared independence. 2. 1989-90: The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (U.S.S.R) was dead.

Lagos is the sole reason y'all make noise about the SW and some fake hospitality. Being a former national capital coupled with the special focus of the FG what has made Lagos what it is along with the clear, significant efforts of other Nigerians that are forced to live and work there because till date, it has the only functional seaport. Protect the region any way you can, that is absolutely critical but read and see what those you ordinarily love to lick their arses have to say about your region. If an Igbo person said same thing, you would have been vibrating with insults and general stupidity.

Has any Igbo or IPOB member caused any unrest or insecurity in your region as these northerners have? Hospitality bunkum! Well done.

Are you saying Igbos are only in Lagos? There are millions of Igbos littered over southwest, enjoying peace and tranquility offered by we Yorubas. You chose to focus on that hospitality stuff he said, but he made a point. We give you and every tribe hospitality in the SW.

You said if it was an Igbo man that said this, we would be vibrating with insults... Have you seen any Yoruba person supporting Junaid? Or you are selectively blind to the comments above yours. It seems you're the one vibrating with natural stupidity here, to be honest

The north can play politics with Boko Haram and billions of Naira is taken from us to develop your lands right? Why we Southwest can’t set up a community policing to wade off criminals?

Go and warn your people that the Southwest won’t tolerate any notoriety either from the Fulani herdsmen, Igbos or any of our neighbors taking our hospitality for granted!!

a yoruba man is d most foolish man in dis country shebi ojukwu released awolowo from prison and told him to declare oduduwa kingdom that he ojukwu will declare biafra,he made a deal with fulani that he was going to be d president now your tinubu wont let amoketun hold cuz of oneself ambition.
not that i like herdsmen killings but i dont want amoketun to hold so every body can split up.

Just went through your previous post.. you're a pro northerner and a Muslim.. you're fooling no one but yourself

Many sick people called elder statemen. Amotekun are yet to be armed and this ethnicist is already nailing them for carrying sophisticated weapons.

Like it or not
AMOTEKUN HAS COME TO STAY!!!! Your opinion is infinitesimally insignificant.

We have the Igbos and other tribes in the southwest so why is Fulani so bothered about the security of the southwest.clear conscience fears no accusations,if Fulani are not terrorist they should shut up for once.is federal state regions should be responsible for their security,again Igbos will stand side by side with the yoruba in this matter and beyond untill Biafra and oduduwa is restored .GOD BLESS BIAFRA GOD BLESS ODUDUWA REPUBLIC.

In AMOTEKUN we stand!!!.... No leave no transfer

FIrstly, your submissions above has nothing to do with your being a "born again" christian...whatever that means! Secondly, the constitution does not stop communities from protecting herself! Why do people build fences around thier houses, inside an estate that is already fenced round and very secure? Like Park View in Lagos, VGC, Omole estate, Pinnock etc. Why? Protection. Every state has the right to devise a means to protect herself especially when the "federal security architecture" seems to fail or is failing. Ofcourse, one may frown at the fact that federalism does not allow regional autonomy et al, but when fundamental human rights are involved, that is second place.-right to life and protection of your property is a fundamental human right even acknowledged by several UN charters and conventions. If my government cannot guarantee that right per time, are you saying I should fold my hands until "they" come and kill me? Like the "Fulani herdsmen" were alledged to assasinate the daughter of an APC chieftain in the west along Benin Akure road? How can that happen under community policing? Are you aware that in every community they know who is legitimate and who is not? Even in the area you live, are you saying you can't tell who has questionable character and who is straight forward? Armed robbers have wives and kids, their kids live among us, some are known but people are afraid to tell the police hence reprisals from their gangs. How do you think the Police do their jobs? From credible intelligence. Or "informants" as widely known. What Amotekun is, is intelligence gathering for the security agencies. It is what Hisbah Police is. Take a look... Kano- Hisbah Police, Katsina-Hisbah Police, Kaduna-Vigilante Service, Nasarawa-Hisbah Police, Zamfara-Yankasa, Taraba- Taraba Mashals,Sokoto- Yambanga, Ebony- Ebonyi neigbourhood watch group, Rivers- Rivers government neigbourhood safety corps, Benue- Benue livestock guards, and you are complaining of Amotekun? Where was the AGF when these mushrooms security outfit sprang up? Why are they afraid? That means they had plans...plans that they can invade these communities in the west at anytime and carry out their nefarious activities. Do you understand that some men cheat? Even some married men at that cheat, yet they may threaten to kill someone if they found out that their wives cheated on them. Look at it objectively and hollistcally if you like, is it fair? You cheat yet you frown when I cheat. If indeed cheating isn't good then lets not cheat, but if it i, then let us all cheat equally, simple. I deliberately brought in the cheating analogy to drive home my point. That said, I do not and would never subscribe to that way of life, but truth must be told. He who comes to equity must come with clean hands. The blame is also on the Federal government! How? By allowing sectarian ideologies to gestate in the first place. 1. Introduction of Sharia in most Northen states. 2. Introduction of Community policing like Hisbah etc. 3. No clear framework on the modus operandi of these privately funded but public agencies. 4. Failure of the Police to "adequately" secure lives and properties. The list is not exhaustive. Speaking about which? Are you aware that Hisbah police can come to your shop and cart away alcoholic beverages? Even though you may be a christian? Where is the right to live anywhere in the country and practice your faith as enshrined in the constitution? The west is saying, okay let us also set up a similar agency like Hisbah and protect our communities, difference is that they didn't do it discretly but with pomp and pageantry....but you should know that Yorubas generally are "show men", they like showmanship and there is nothing wrong with that. I am even planning to go to Akwa Ibom and encourage my folks there to also set up a network of community Policing with Cross River, Abia, Rivers and Bayelsa in tow. That way we can all the "protected" or atleast have a false sense of protection. Lastly, i am a christian. I will never rejoice when anyone is murdered or killed irrespective of his religion. When Jesus walked the earth, he went to the house of Zaccheaus a famous tax collector and a "sinner"- tax collectors then were known to cheat and extort people. Some of the Jews especially the Pharises frown at such association.....take a listen to what Jesus replied.... "Today salvation has come to this house, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham.
For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost." (Luke 19:9-10) I rest my case.

Recently, governors of Southwest states came together to set up a security outfit called Amotekun to check insecurity in their region. This comes as the national security architecture seems overwhelmed, but the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr. Abubakar Malami, said it is unconstitutional. What is your take?

First and foremost, a line has been drawn among most conscientious and not reasonable Nigerians. A line has been drawn on the question of the desire or otherwise of what people call state police. The agitation for state police started from the Southwest. It was purely political; it had nothing to do with security. It started long before this Fourth Republic and the main purpose for the agitation for state police was that some political elements among the elite of the Southwest believe that somehow they would be in a position to exercise political power to their own satisfaction, unless they control those elements of national police, particularly the police and the secret services.

This is not new. So, they kept on the agitation until this republic, especially from 2009 when the security situation became much dire with the emergence of Boko Haram. So, you can see clearly they use the dire state of insecurity in the country as an alibi. There was a political intent; there was a political purpose. They needed to create a regional police, not just state police emanating from that part of the country, because of the idea of seceding to create Odudua Republic for a very long time. So now that the Federal Government, using the president, as one single spokesperson on the issue, has yielded to them on the idea of state police, they quickly went round, rediscovered their old agenda of having their own regional police and now they came up quickly with this Amotekun.

The way things happen quickly in Nigeria it must be a surprise to us who are observant that within a very short period that they have been given the right to do it they have come up with the structure; they have bought vehicles and they are planning to buy arms. So, if people are concerned they are justifiably concerned, because this is nothing new but a rediscovery of an old agenda, which is tied up with the idea of seceding, because they have gotten everything they wanted from Nigeria. They control the economy. Lagos alone controls over 50 per cent of the economy and they believe that they can do without Nigeria even though, in their own view, to rubbish everything that is national; they forget the fact that even if they have the manufacturing base, they don’t have the market to sell. Without the market I don’t see how their economy can thrive. Everything in Lagos today was done by the Federal Government. Somehow they believe that they can get away with it, retain what is their own, let the rest of us all go and wallow in poverty. Good luck to them.

I don’t want to speak to what the attorney-general has said because I am not a member of his party neither am I a member of his government. I am completely persuaded that it was wrong to have allowed the idea of a state police. Some of us have been talking against it for over two decades. Now that it has come to pass, the hidden agenda has now come out. Nigerians should now open their eyes to see what is afoot. As I said, when General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida’s regime decided to create Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) and he appointed Professor Wole Soyinka, one of the prior statements of Soyinka was that he was going to arm most of the officers, who came from among his boys, errand boys many of who came from background of drama and fine arts. How do you think they could take charge of the extensive road network in Nigeria? Nobody cared to ask. The idea of arming FRSC died only because the seed money given for the takeoff of the project was said to have allegedly been put in somebody’s personal account and it became a national scandal.

Is Amotekun any different from Hisbah and Civilian JTF?

Why are they comparing the issue of Amotekun with Hisbah? It is a programme I have spoken against for over 20 years. My views about Hisbah are negative views wherever it exists. The head of Hisbah in Kano under former Governor Ibrahim Shekarau was the one that was inciting people not to allow children to be vaccinated, but when he was arrested and taken to Kuje Prison, we had peace and later Shekarau had to issue a statement and allow the vaccination to continue. You can see that they are all political creations. If you want to believe that this wonder organization can solve your security problem then you are making a blunder. To solve security problem you have to be sincere, study the problem and have a national consensus about the problem, especially what are the real issues confronting us in terms of security? But don’t tell me about what (Femi) Falana has been saying; he knows he is lying.

I recall vividly he coming to congratulate me about what I said on Hisbah and even about the introduction of Shari’a. Bala Usman and I had a reason to go and tell (former President Olusegun) Obasanjo not to get involved in it, because they will drag it into the worse politics. We warned late Bola Ige that anybody who is not a Muslim and is looking at this issue, the same Muslims will teach those governors using religion to win election, only to get there and do nothing but corruption.

What solutions do you recommend to tackle the spate of insecurity in the country?

If I have the solution or panacea or a silver bullet I shouldn’t be sitting here in a small bungalow in Kano; I should be the president. I don’t know and, in fact, nobody does. Let me be honest with you: nobody has the solution by himself. It is a country of over 200 million people. God did not curse us to live under the situation we find ourselves. Let there be an elite political consensus. I have been saying this since 1985 after Babangida came to power on 27 August 1985. I said the elite must come together with sincerity, discuss this issue, come out with modalities on what needs to be done. Whatever needs to be done must be weighed critically and we must know who has responsibility for what. Asking me as an individual that I should give solution to the problem in all the areas of this country, I think you are not being fair to me.

But the attorney-general never issued any statement against Hisbah in Kano?

In Kano and Zanfara, Hisbah don’t bear arms. In the Northeast, particularly in Borno metropolitan and parts of Adamawa, the people recruited are hunters, who carrying bow and arrow. Can you compare that with sophisticated guns and sub-machine guns that are being carried by Operation Amotekun members? The argument advanced by Falana is fraudulent, divisible. Hisbah has never carried arms. Anyway Hisbah itself has never been universally accepted. I am one of those who opposed it in the past and I took my opposition to both Obasanjo and also to late Bola Ige. As far as I am concerned, the comparison between Hisbah and Amotekun, which is going to be a force under a single command with lavished amount of money and communication gadgets and vehicles to rival the Federal Government’s security outfits, which is represented in those areas, is a recipe for anarchy and confusion and those lawyers, who are trying to present those arguments are being simply duplicitous as always.

The issue of border closure is also closely related to insecurity. How far has that solved the problem?

We knew that the government has been supported, by and large, by majority of Nigerians on the issue of the closure of our borders, because open borders are threats to our national security. Secondly, the borders are used by our neigbours to undermine our national economy. That is why people supported the government, not because of party or any region or religion or ethnic affiliation. However, to our surprise Ganiyu Adams, who is the de facto leader of Odua Peoples Congress (OPC) issued a statement in which he was warning and threatening the government not to do anything about the border between Nigeria and Benin Republic because, according to him, the Yoruba race are also living in Benin Republic, so nobody should enforce the Federal Government’s decision to close all the borders, particularly the Nigeria-Benin Republic border.

The greatest enemy of Nigeria today is the Republic of Benin, because the President of Republic of Benin is a businessman, who is involved in the criminality that is going on in Nigeria. Call it bunkering, smuggling of cars, smuggling of rice. In fact, as small as Benin Republic – it is smaller that some states in Nigeria – it is the biggest importer of rice. We all know that the rice is not meant for consumption in Benin Republic, but for smuggling into Nigeria and for its consumption in Nigeria with our population of about 200 million people. We cannot afford to have Benin Republic divide our national economy. Our wealthiest businessman, not only in Nigeria but Africa, Aliko Dangote, has said that it is impossible to survive and thrive with a neighbour like Benin Republic as neighbor. Yet Gani Adams says otherwise. That is why I said we should be very careful about the mindset of these people.

Is there no way these things can be harmonised?

You people in the media are eating your cake and having it. Nigeria is a federal system; it is a federation, a federation in it’s own casual document; the constitution has elaborated issues, which are the responsibility of the Federal Government, those of the state governments and those for the local governments, covering for the three tiers. But it also provides that in anywhere, joint responsibility is possible between the Federal Government and the states, and where it is possible it should be done. But the idea that the police in Nigeria – I don’t know anywhere else other than Nigeria where police should be in the hands of state – especially state governments given their temperament, their irresponsibility, their recklessness and corruption. It might be a reckless recipe and it shows clearly that some people are pursuing a political agenda of secession and turning the country haywire and using that same lawlessness and lack of security to justify their breaking up the country.

Is another civil war looming?

I think there is a misguided conviction among some politicians in certain parts of this country that somehow the country owes them a living, that the country cannot do without them, that whatever they want must be law and be a cardinal point of this country. That cannot happen. Secondly, the idea that we can develop by being divergent, reckless and irresponsible does not hold because history does not prove that. Thirdly, those who imagine that somehow they can make their own mistake and make the entire country pay for the mistake are also being fascist. Those who encourage others to go to a civil war only to come and laugh at the people who are at the receiving end… the damage the civil war did to this country is a great disservice, because without that tribal coup, of course, the creation of more states and the civil war, Nigeria would have been a better place and even our democracy would have matured. But here we are today: you cross your bridge as you approach it.

The way we are now there is no alternative to national police, but I believe some day, when we are more sophisticated and more sincere and we have better leadership, then it will be possible to delegate some of the powers as regards maintenance of security to lesser bodies. But the idea that you can now carve out law and order in other areas and then create a super police, which is neither federal nor state, is, in my view, fraudulent; it is mischievous, irresponsible and they imagine that the country is going to take it lying down? I think they have made a very serious mistake. So, coming back as an afterthought, they said they did not even mean to confront the Federal Government. It is neither there nor here; it is sheer nonsense. If they like let then go and confront the Federal Government; the Federal Government is not afraid of them.

But I hope the Federal Government learns its own lessons, because you don’t make policies by opening your mouth to say ‘go do this or don’t do this’. Go back to the law; many of them are lawyers. If they don’t understand that the law itself is supreme and as far as possible we should follow the law, as provided, before we do anything reckless, because this idea of Amotekun was an act of recklessness. Those who are at the forefront of the Amotekun, while in Abuja they are APC, but whne they go back to their respective states, they are something else. So, it shows you that these people are actually unreliable. If care is not taken they will drag us into another civil war and I don’t believe the country can survive another civil war.

https://m.guardian.ng/politics/juniad-muhammed-warns-of-imminent-civil-war-over-amotekun/

Operation Amotekun which is a security architecture for the south west is being blown out of context and politicised by mostly northerners.

If they have human feelings above commercial interest they should feel the pulse of the people in the south west and reason along with them as to why they took the decision to establish Operation Amotekun.

The south west feel threatened with insecurity such as herdsmen killing of farmers, kidnapping etc

With the federal government security agencies being overstretched beyond its limits.

The governors in the south west had to initiate this remedial structure to complement the federal security agencies.

However, northern political leaders are unrelenting.

THEY SMELL A RAT !

They want Operation Amotekun disbanded.

And they are unrelenting about it.

I am wondering why the north can not for one time accept conditions from the south.

When Hisbah and Civilian JTF came up in the north the south did not challenge them to a standstill.

They conceded it to the north.

A governor from Zamfara state Sani Yerima amputated a ram thelf using Sharia penal code.

Ex-governor Sani Yerima got away with it without Obasanjo government or any other government bringing him to face justice.

Junaid Mohammed should stop blowing the trumpet of war.

It has not gotten to that.

Instead of emulating our Muslim brothers who have remained silent on this issue of Amotekun, we Christians are disturbing the cyberspace with hypocritical comments. Amotekun will never see the light of the day as long as we remain one Nigeria. It's a bad policy and a tribalistic security outfit aimed at persecuting other Nigerians. On behalf of we Christians, i condemn Amotekun. Let's learn to live in peace and harmony

if Christianity means being a fool and die like a no body my man have the Christianity alone.denfense is part of life don't teach me nonsense

Then Hisbah should be banned

we actually expect the slave master to fight back, no slave Master allows his slaves to go free just like that, this is the time for the south to unite together for its freedom!

Arrewa:
As a born again Christian who is meant to speak the truth at all times, i think this amoketun issue is being hypocritically blown out of proportion to expand hatred for other tribes especially the Fulanis. Why must we Christians be the brain behind the vast support for Amotekun when the Nigerian constitution is clear about the roles of the armed forces and police in the security of the country? Why must we form an ethnic militia to target fellow Nigerians when the constitution guarantees freedom of movement and doing business nationwide as long as we are Nigerians? What we fail to realize is that the south east cheering on Amotekun sees its as a synonym for their biafra agitations and they will rather support anything that will disband the relative peace and unity of Nigeria. The IPOB sympathizers will be the one to cry wolf when Amotekun starts targeting their tribesmen who commits various crimes in the south west.

not that i like herdsmen killings but i dont want amoketun to hold so every body can split up.

it was gowon that released awolowo you idiot

One that read your comment will see that you are biased person. And I don't really see any different btw Hausa/Fulani Christian and Muslim... They push the same agenda, and it is their (Christians) fear that tied them down under the control of their Muslims counterpart.
Your comment shows that you are suffering from the lack of so many things like our constitution, politics and some causes of our problem as a nation.
Your lack of knowledge exposed you that you don't know that laws that gives room to hisbah, vigilante and the JTF in the North. It is that same law that opens door for Amotekun.
Whether abokis like it or not, Amotekun has come to stay and there is nothing your Hausa/Fulani forefathers can do to it.

I am guiding myself against any form of evil and you are here crying foul. Is it your fathers' land Amotekun is coming to secure?

Now I know that these people(abokifulani) are nothing but lazy...are you afraid to face Igbo alone if peradventure Yoruba declare its republic?

WiLdFLame:
Juniad should shut up

The north can play politics with Boko Haram and billions of Naira is taken from us to develop your lands right? Why we Southwest can’t set up a community policing to wade off criminals?

Go and warn your people that the Southwest won’t tolerate any notoriety either from the Fulani herdsmen, Igbos or any of our neighbors taking our hospitality for granted!!
