Politic Digest: The Northern Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN) has berated the South West Governors for the establishment of Amotekun, saying that the move was a threat to national peace and security.

The NYCN in a statement signed by its National President Comrade Isah Abubakar  and made available to PRNigeria in Abuja said Amotekun group in south west is OPC Military wing in disguise, stressing that the group is in the same league with the proscribed IPOB terrorist organization in the South East.

He appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari not to allow this unconstitutionality to prevail, adding that the south west Governors must desist from backing nefarious groups such as this one.

According to him, Amotekun is a threat to peace and national security, and an attempt to jeorpadize Nigeria’s sovereignty. The Amotekun Group is not different from Boko Haram and the IPOB Movement in their formative stages, stressing that Nigerian Police, DSS and Army Shouldn’t take this lightly with the Governors of South West.

The NYCN called on the National Security Adviser to promptly take steps that will avert the looming threat to our National security deliberately  created by Governors of South West, OPC and others.

Meanwhile, the leading civil Rights Advocacy group – HUMAN RIGHTS WRITERS ASSOCIATION OF NIGERIA (HURIWA) has applauded the decision of the political leadership of the South West of Nigeria to formulate a home-made security strategy to tackle the increasing threats to the security of lives and property of law abiding citizens of their federating units.

“The rest of the federating units such as South South; South East; North central; North West; North East should similarly adopt same approach because safeguarding the security of the citizenry and coming to the aid of state institutions such as the Nigerian Police Force and other sister security institutions is the fundamental task of a good citizen. A bottom to the top approach to security and the formulation of security strategy to make the people the owners of the process is the best intelligence gathering tool.”

“We have watched with overwhelming excitement the collective resolve of millions of people of South West origin including millions of other law abiding citizens of other segments of the Nigerian federation doing legitimate businesses in the South West, to collectively restore sanity, security and societal harmony in that part of the country that remains the industrial and commercial hub of the Nation, is highly commendable. We hereby urge governors of other federating units to follow the good model of the South West joint security architecture, to bring about the restoration of security, peace, unity and economic advancements in all other parts of Nigeria.”

HURIWA recalled that the  governors of the South West  will on January 7, inaugurate Operation Amotekun, a security strategy meant to combat killings and kidnapping in the zone.

The Ekiti State Commissioner for Information, Mr. Muyiwa Olumilua, who said this in an interview with one of our correspondents on Wednesday, said vehicles and equipment for the security outfit were ready.

He stated that the inauguration was delayed by the need for all the states to be adequately ready in terms of meeting the requirements.

HURIWA sated thus: “We commend the South West governors  who had, in September, after a meeting in Akure, said they would set up Operation Amotekun, following serial killings and kidnapping in the zone by Fulani herdsmen. There is every justification for the establishment of this model security architecture following a relentless gale of armed attacks by bandits and suspected armed Fulani bandits.  In June, gunmen, suspected to be herdsmen, killed Funke Olakunri, a daughter of the Afenifere leader, Reuben Fasoranti, on the Ondo-Ore road.

“There were cases of kidnapping, including the abduction of a lecturer at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife, Prof. Olayinka Adegbehingbe, in May, at the Ikoyi/Apomu junction of the Ibadan-Ife Expressway in Ikire, a border town between Osun and Oyo states. We in the organised human rights community are happy that the governors have taken the bull by the horns and are now doing something to checkmate the rising scale of threats to the security of lives and property of the good people of the South West.”

Meyitti Allah Nko!

What about Sharia law

Dh

Yorunba muslims and Muric will agree with them.

Wailing /propagandist children have started so so early again. Abia last paid salary over 10 months ago, non of the SE has implemented new minimum wage, Parklane hospital has finally parkup in Enugu state. The bitter children are less concerned about that. They are more concerned about happening in Kano, Katsina and Lagos State

What about hisbah?

I know things like this would come up

If I drink beer in your region, hisbah can flog me in the name of sharia but South West cannot form security network for their own region? Una eye go clear las las

Which national unity are they talking about? For their mind, this Nigeria we live in is united bah? No more freedom to kill, to steal and to destroy like the devil in you commanded you to do. Arewa Youths are the lazy youths their father was referring to and not the Southerners that have the concentration of people generating the nation's wealth. Leave Amotekun and ipob alone, focus on developing your region, reducing illiteracy, controlling population explosion, reducing poverty in the North and contributing significantly to Nigeria's GDP. That's far more important than meddling where you have no business.

What do say about Yân bànga, Yàn dàba and even Hisbah that can arrest Police?

What is northern youth own with SW security apparatus sef. With all the insecurity in the North, they should be happy that a regional sw outfit will release pressure on npf and na so they can focus on the North. Don't they have cjtf to.

This just proves my point about North and SW relationship. The North really do expect the SWto be subservient to them. One thing I like about Yorubas though is that they stuck together

Then be mumu when there brothers were destroying goods produced from South then no talk and when Fulani herdsmen were destroying peoples farm crops they were all in ghost mode now they are talking rubbish. If your governor can organize reasonable things like this I believed boko haram will not exist at your region again.

Hnmmm how can a sharia officer arrested a constituted authority (Police) when we are not in a sharia nation. I was so surprise when I heard the news. In fact wonder shall never end in northern region.

Don't mind those f00ls

Because they know that, with Amotekun on ground, it will be impossible for their terrorist brothers ( foot soldiers ) to operate !!!

What concerns them with the activities of opc?.

What are they afraid of?

Sharrap Form your Own Islamic Wing Too And Stop Jealousy SW Governors Because They Are All Christians

The northern youth should not worry theirselves.
The amotekun are field with kowards that will take to their heels if they see real men.
They can only deal with their fellow oyoroba muslim.

The security outfit created by South West govs to secure the region from fulani terrorist is commendable. Instead of going it alone where it will be easy for buhari's islamist regime to attack it's formation, they cleverly decide to form a security force in GROUP. Defence by numbers or group is the best form of defence in a country where state sponsored terrorist are destroying lives and properties. Fulani terrorist are STATE SPONSORED!
I urge states in Middle Belt, South East and South South to borrow this beautiful idea and secure their regions.
If 12 northern states can unilaterally declare themselves islamic states with islamic police, other states in Nigeria are FREE to join forces and create their own security outfits to secure lives and properties.

Moderator please push this thread to FP straight.

Hope this isn't the final recipe for a breakup of the country

YES, it is. So, what are you gonna do anout it you miscreants?

Good. Bokoharam is DAURA. Fulani Herdsmen is AREWA and Miyetti Allah is The Caliphate.
