The leader of the Yoruba World Congress, Prof Banji Akintoye, has said Yoruba people will challenge the declaration of Amotekun as illegal by the Federal Government in court.

Akintoye, who is a renowned historian said in an interview with one of our correspondents that his group would wait until today to hear the position the South-West governors would take on the development.

The leader of the YWC said he had spoken to scores of lawyers who told him that the Federal Government’s pronouncement on the South-West Security Network codenamed Operation Amotekun was illegal.

Akintoye said, “We will wait till tomorrow morning to hear what our governors will say. However, Amotekun is no longer the affairs of the governors alone, it has become a property of the Yoruba people.

“We Yoruba people will respond to the position of scores of lawyers I have spoken to about this is that the action of the Federal Government itself is illegal.

“All the lawyers said the action of the Federal Government was illegal and that the Yoruba people should pursue it in court.“We will wait for our lawyers on how to pursue it legally.

Meanwhile, the Yoruba Youth Socio-Cultural Association has said the Federal Government’s rejection of Amotekun had further confirmed that the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), is supporting the Fulani against other ethnic groups without hiding it.

The National President of the group, Olalekan Hammed, said this in a statement on Tuesday.The statement read, “Everybody knows that the insecurity problem facing the country is largely being perpetrated by Fulani herdsmen and we (Yoruba) came out with a lasting solution.

“But unfortunately, our initiative is being rubbished by the Federal Government. There is no doubt, Buhari does not want peace to reign in Nigeria.

“The whole world can now see that Buhari is in support of the herdsmen terrorising our people.“It is either we restructure the nation or we have our own nation.“Our safety is no more guaranteed as all power seems to belong to herdsmen.”

“The whole world can now see that Buhari is in support of the herdsmen terrorising our people.“It is either we restructure the nation or we have our own nation.“Our safety is no more guaranteed as all power seems to belong to herdsmen.”

But it is very unfortunate that the Fulani has not had the same “live and let live” approach to other ethnic Nationalities in Nigeria.

The Fulani concept of living is that others have to die, so that the Fulani may live.As far as the Fulani are concerned, other peoples of other ethnic nationalities are second rate slaves to be used, dumped, maimed, raped or killed for the good of the Fulani man.

The Fulani see Nigeria as his great grandfather’s inheritance to be toyed with as he wishes and as he wants. This attitude of Fulani makes him believe that he has to rule wherever he is, regardless of his comparative intelligence and capability to that of his host among other reasons.

Security Chiefs yesterday after meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari said only God can police the country’s border.....the country’s security chiefs blamed the porous border for the rising insecurity.

President Buhari has made it his lifelong ambition to oppose any form of restructuring. He has been an advocate of Fulani supremacy all his life. He has been a strong advocate and promoter of Sharia law and the Islamic faith.

He has been a loyal disciple of Uthman Dan Fodio who believed that the entire Nigeria was meant for the Northerners to occupy, rule and control. That is why Buhari has had a long standing ambition to become President to continue this hegemonic ambition of Fulanis to rule, control and dominate Nigeria. Now, the ambition is even beyond Nigeria.

The entire Fulani people across Africa are looking for a home for all Fulanis and Buhari has been seen as a suitable Grand Patron for that agenda.So, right now Buhari is acting as grand patron of that agenda for the pan- African Fulani people

That is why you see a lot of killer herdsmen today, many of them are not Nigerians. They are coming from Mali, Niger, Gambia and all African countries where you have Fulanis. They believe that this is the place God has ordained for them to be their home and Buhari is facilitating that for them.

That is why they are killing our people & want to take over our lands.If you notice, as soon as they ravage a village and kill the villagers, they take over the village and they rename the village and give it a Fulani name. Very soon, they install an Emir and turn it into an Emirate. That is what they want to do all over the country through RUGA settlement.

What other Nigerians with foresight visualized long ago is what some are just seeing today.The less palliative hope for Nigeria is indeed regionalism/restructuring.

They knew it but didn't care because the were not attacked directly. And no.The best hope is separation.Let everyone go their way.

Check the best nation's in the world,it's either they are United by language or religion, Nigeria is United by none of those and it can't work
