Must they test patience of every Nigerian? When some regions complained about maltreatment, some regions only fold their hands and made gist of them, now na their turn. Dis life na turn by turn!

My own is that the proponents of Amotoekun should not leave anything to chance that Malami and his goons can leverage in a court of law.

The moment Miyetti Allah disagreed, I knew those in government will start running helter skelter to please them.

First stage activated, more to follow.

Buhari who mischievously coined the word 'Farmers/Herders clashes' knew what he was doing. He was only trying to turn it to 2 fighting from invasion and land theft.

We may fall into another civil war. Buhari is doing his best to make sure Herdsmen steal as much land as possible during his tenure. He is only setting them up for massacre. A possible genocide loading.

The genocide might not be outright but systemic. That man has sown a seed of hatred for Herdsmen amongst Nigerians.

He wants to install them like the British installed the Isrealis on Palestinians.

Its has happened already the Israelis and Philistines of African.

I dont think his argument holds water. The supreme court could rule all these state security agencies are illegal. The sec 214 (1) of the constitution says no other police force can be established. The question is what defines a police force. I think item 68 of exclusive list would give the FG the win in court.

It's not like federal government enforces all the laws it has under its exclusive list like the minimum wage. When states pay dont pay workers the minimum wage who goes to jail or gets fined?

These constitution should just be amended. It seem a majority of states want decentralized policing. It's just as dumb to centralize prisons and fire arms in hands of federal government.

Constitution exclusive list:

2. Arms, ammunition and explosives. 
45. Police and other government security services established by law. 
48. Prisons
68. Any matter incidental or supplementary to any matter mentioned elsewhere in this list.

Section 214. (1) There shall be a police force for Nigeria, which shall be known as the Nigeria Police Force, and subject to the provisions of this section no other police force shall be established for the Federation or any part thereof.

federal laws are different from state. The outfit isn't for all Nigerians but for the states in the south west. Once the states assembly endorse it, the federal government doesn't have any power over state laws. Get that.

The support for Amotekun by Igbos is a source of concern for the FG, they thought that since Yorubas oppose Igbo agendas, they can use Igbos to oppose this move but it seems reverse is the case.
The reality is that there is virtually no Yoruba community that you won't find Igbos, if the herdsmen attack, it will also affect them.
Igbo associations in Yorubaland are ready to provide financial and materials support for Amotekun if requested by the Obas.
Igbo business men are waiting for orders to supply Pump Action rifles and even AK 47, we travel a lot, security of Yoruba means security of Igbos. That's how it is

Actually, federal laws are superior to state laws. but the fact remains that they are a vigilate group and not a police force.

At the bolded above, which police arrested the officially recognized police force seen in an hotel last week with some women.
My brother, leave suya for aboki, Amotekun has come to stay. Any Fulani or useless killers will be arrested and prosecuted by our amotekun warriors. Yoruba will no longer be killed like fowl in its lands again. Never again.
Don't mind him with his epistle. That's his opinion anyway, which doesn't count. I'm travelling on Benin asaba expressway right now and we just passed where fulani herdsmen had a field day. We stopped afar, for over 30 minutes to allow them finish with their victims. People told me it's a commonplace here. There was a police check point close to the scene but they couldn't near them. I felt sorry for my country for the first time today. It happened along Benin bypass. Everybody in the vehicle was panicking, including myself. Anyone who says amotekun is illegal needs to be investigated.

they could be superior yes, but state ls too have their laws and state assembly. The vigilante called amotekun arent police. They're to compliment the efforts of the police. They can bear guns but the dane ones and the fed govt or attorney-general knows this. They don't have any case on this. How i wish the operation amotekun or were here a few minutes ago on Benin bypass where herdsmen just had a field day. They'd have dealt with the idiots

Falana: "“The point I’m making is that the Nigerian state has collapsed; we are deceiving ourselves.

Me: grin grin
Falana let me also say that you are decieving yourself if you think you are not one of the reasons why it collapsed. When you helped bring in a despot in Buhari, what were you thinking would happen?
From Burundi to Zimbabwe to other failed states, dont you know that despots enable the collapse of any nation?

Federal laws aren't superior to state laws. The key word is jurisdiction.
