I wish you guys can quit the stupid dick measuring here and let's watch what the fulani government will do next.

As you can see, even though the ONSA approved it, it seems they are regretting the action especially now that other zones are clamouring for theirs.

If they should refuse any zone from having theirs, we will all be back to square one as Amotoekun will be proscribed.

Therefore, you online miscreants should stop the chest-beating, war mongering and senseless arrogance so as not to offend the Masters into thinking Amotoekun is a restructuring or secession agenda and thereby ban it.

Regionalism is slowly creeping back.

Soon, it will be enshrined in the constitution and become Law.

Let each region run its own!

You are right. To be honest, I want it to succeed but our precedents of OPC, Bakassi are saying otherwise. Most of our security agencies don't know how to relate to each other. So, the more we create more agencies, the more our security architecture get more complicated. I have seen Police and Army conflicts several times. Can you imagine that Police force wanted to carry out an arrest of a notorious Kidnapper in the middle of the night and the Military base in that state said they are not aware? The 3 Policemen that carried out the exercise were killed by Soldiers.
Restructuring is very easy. We have a prototype to follow. It has worked before for us and it's working in many advanced countries. It will make people think. Every LGA in Nigeria is blessed. You will be surprised that LGA without Natural resources may perform better than LGA with Natural resources.
My brother small small we will get there is what am preaching. Nigeria is not a country that can just get there overnight.

why do you sound scared? Amotekun as all the aproval it needs, it isnt targeted at any tribe but criminals.. and stating the fact about slowly restructuring without a fight isnt dick measuring contest (although i am quite sure half my length and girth is enough to fill you up and give you mind blowing Orgasm)

Now lets get serious.. restructuring means devolution of powers, and SouthWest is trying to do just that, FG already transfered Federal asset like Oshodi - Airport, Sango Ota - Lagos road, Ondo -Ekiti road, Surulere stadium, Lagos Trade fair and many other strategic assets to SouthWestern Government, slowly we have our own Secuirity aparatus that are lisenced to bare arms so if you look at it holistically DAWN commision is sneakishly getting things restructured without noise while others look on

So you can imagine how hard I laughed at that stewpid joke.

Ok so I'm scared yes. I'm scared because you do not see the disgust the northerners cover up towards the SW for boasting that if not for them, buhari couldn't have made it. You do not see all the little little fingers in the presidency crawling all over you.

If they panic about Amotoekun thinking it's a tool against their interest, it will be proscribed and nothing would happen.

Because if something would happen, it means you would begin to make the noise you were avoiding. And you know pythons hate noise.

TBH, I had been expecting the northerners to kick against this from the day the launch date was unfolded. I never knew they could be patient till after it's launch nitori pe, the activities of herdsmen brought about it's birth.

Everyone speaking and analyzing this arrangement are largely ignorant of the south west and its historic operations o protecting its forests and its people

The concept of the amotekun is not new.Its the way of the land at community level.and was pioneered also by LGAs at joint interstate LGAs as a means to protect the populace in certain states.LGAs came together funded vigilantes,who were rrummoured to use jazz and the spate of kidnapping,murder and robberies from bandits coming in from forests reduced drastically this was more than 10 years ago.With the new incursion of bandits into the south west it makes sense to revive this arrangement again with support drom the state


The vigilantes did not abuse power.They were committed to their tasks as it was a case of local men protecting their own.They were paid by the LGA.And they served with honour.

So this will also be succesful. My only concern is they are dealing with more sophisticated criminals with advanced weaponry this time and numbers.But I suspect the secret to the south west strategy is in their name....those who know will understand

as it is now Amotekun isnt violating any law, legally we have freedom of assoiciation, we have right to posses a lisenced catridge loaded riffle and game riffle, citizens can make arrest unbehalf of law enforcement agency and hand over the culprits to the Police for prosecution,

Northerners that i know (my mother is one and grew up in the north) are not what you Ibos think they are, they dont joke with gentle men agreements and thats why we call them Habokkii here, so just seat and watch SouthWest play this politics and see who would cry betrayer soon

Proscribtion can always be challenged in court if the grounds of proscription are shaky, as we are not practising dictatorship.. even as crazy as IPOB and BSS was FG never proscribed them it was South East governors that did

Hmmm this is the worrisome part with the north. How weaponized will these security outfits be? How do they coordinate with the other security forces and who are they going to be answerable to?

These and many questions need to be answered.

I have not read about this in the constitution even though it is a welcome move
Section 20 of the Administration of Justice Act, every private citizen has the statutory power to arrest a criminal, and thereafter hand the suspect over to the police. According to him, the citizens have the duty to assist the police in the enforcement of law.

“If the individual citizen has the right to do so, then they could also do so by forming a group.

Last time I checked, the Governor of a state is the Chief Security of that State

Yes, the security apparatus belongs to the central government

He doesn't control the Police. The central does.


So if Amotekun will help community policing possible, why not if not?

The central govt has too many to carry


And it has less resources


Why not let's make the states more responsible instead with a weak centre


They will compete and get better. This is the kind of healthy competition we need to move the nation forward.

Even criminals will know that there is no hiding place

You go to the South W, you meet Leopards


Enter the North, you meet Dragons


You will reconsider criminality and find something more gainful or risk death somewhere along the line.

So in your mind you think Buhari can just wake up one day and restructure this country? Restructuring is not all about Buhari. And stop all this Buhari is behind the terror things going on in Nigeria, if he's behind it he won't give order to army to start killing them. When Jonathan and Dasuki don't empower the army force do we now say is Jonathan that is behind it? Stop listening to those politicians and press being pays to destabilize the peace of this country. Boko Haram are not only terrorizing Nigeria.
There is more to the politics of book haram than you know bro. Whether we listened to paid journalist or not, we all see what is going on in Nigeria. The president has all it takes if he really wants the country restructured. The president himself has never hidden his opposition to restructuring. The president knows how to make the National Assembly do his will. He knows how to remove onnoghen unconstitutionally and treathened the NJC to uphold it. He knows how to use DSS to do lots of unconstitutional disobedience to court orders but suddenly became incapacitated and clueless about how to get Nigeria restructured. It is either you are innocently misled to believe this or you are one of those supporting this calamity on Nigeria for selfish reason.

So what is stopping the restructuring?

Have you also noticed that these guys up North becomes powerless against any united voice? If it were just one state that carried out this plan among the South West states, you would have seen a different narrative but when it appear all states in the south west keyed into it, they know they can not do anything.

This same thing played out during the RUGA plan. Because the entire South and Middle belt spoke in one voice, they buried the plan and yet, some people feel the North is so power? I think only power against a divided section.

I think the North being so powerful is a myth. People are judging the North through the mirror of the military era and that is what is making people paranoid.

Also, the current political class of the South are not interested in restructuring and they are all hiding under the shield that the North is powerful and using that to justify the southern leaders incompetence.

Even the lanky Fulani herdsmen power is a myth coz of the southerners really want to deal with them, there is nothing they can do. Forget about the media rubbish, if the southerners stand in unison against any herdsmen killer, the Fulani herdsmen will blink first.

Do you think if each house of rep and senators of the South rise up in the floor of the house and senate to d restructuring of Nigeria with conviction and sincerity, do you think the North has the power to oppose?

If the governors and house of assemblies within each state of the south rise up with one voice for restructuring, do you think Buhari has the power to declare war on them with the Nigerian army? Hell no, the southerners political class themselves don’t want any restructuring.

This is a ploy by the FG to dismantle it. The NW will start it and the FG will now come in and tell us that they want to strengthen the military and Para military units so such local forces are not needed.


If the SW cry out they will point at the NW as another region that has the outfit but it was dismantled also.

Hmm God bless you. To add to what you have just said. The NW might even established it and intensional decide to abuse it. Given FG. an avenue to come in and scrapped the whole of it.
