Not against the rest of Nigeria, it's against the West.

I don't mean to sound bigotry , but this is Afeni feri's most sensible statement yet ...Fulani people should know that they are not superior to any region of the country in terms of population , education and enlightenment ....
I wish Afeniferi can carry over this anger till 2023 and join hands with the Igbos and the middle belt ,to kick out this people who think they own Nigeria .. Unfortunately I doubt they would , cos its no news that they are not united like Nigeria Delta militants or Biafra , these are mere words of anger !!!
BTW i hope they consulted the landlord of the south west Tinubu , before making this statement , if he doesn't cotoh in this pohoh then it's irrelevant !!!

Nukilia:


Glad you're honest! It's time for the southeast governors to rise up and systematically endorse a group which would defend the SE states... Enough of the sabotage by the Fulani police

jimyjames:
What we Igbo's saw 50 years ago Yoruba's are just seeing it now, glory be to God for opening their eyes

OROSUNBOLB:


If you really want to make any sense, you need to do away with your arrogance. Take it or leave it, Yoruba do not need Igbo to achieve any target they set for themselves. You equally need to understand that when you talk about the Niger Delta, the Yoruba are well represented in that axis- the Itshekiris ! Please be informed that there are hundreds of Itshekiri guys who are members of the OPC. Regardless of what you know before now,go and research the history of Itshekiri people.

You are indeed united in Igbo land and that's why majority of you guys voted for the opposition when Ojukwu was a contender for the post of the president of this country ! That is a story for another day anyway.

Trust me,we don't need your support to decimate the offsprings of Uthman Dan fodio. They are only trying to know if we are still the same Yoruba that whipped their forefathers ass in their failed war of conquest of 1840s. Please note this,the day Yoruba people say NO to Nigeria,that is the day Nigeria will be buried. In fact,we will be eating our hot Amala with abula soup while Nigeria is being buried. Just pray for that day to come in earnest so that you can have your Biafra.

You must be alive first before aspiring to become a president.
If the terrorist succeed to kill all in SW, who then becomes the president.

actually bro
Cheetah is Amottekun whille leopard is Ekun

allow to back my submission/claim with logical proof

An ideal rendition of the animal call "Tiger" by a Yoruba man will likely be "ẹkùn abilà" just as we have adopted "kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ abilà" for zebra.
To this debate I have some responses to make in order to clear the air. First of all, tiger is an Asian animal. What we have here is leopard. Thank God I was born and brought up in rural area and followed elders a little. More, my hometown, Ibese in 1979 became famous when a stray ẹkùn was killed in a farmland near the town by some brave hunters.
We have pictures of what Yoruba refers to as Ẹkùn and it is leopard.
Concerning Àmọ̀tẹ́kùn, there is no confusion about it.
Àmọ̀tẹ́kùn is cheetah. Yoruba says, "Asunkún pani obìnrin Àmọ̀tẹ́kùn."
This saying draws a comparison between a deceptive woman who can kill her husband even though she will be the first to start crying at the slightest provocation, and Àmọ̀tẹ́kùn with its two black stripes on its face resembling black tears streaming down its cheek.
The comparison also fits perfectly because of the sleeky shape of Àmọ̀tẹ́kùn (compared to the robust shape of leopard) which Yoruba must have regarded as prominent feminine feature.
More, cheetah is common in Africa and in Yorùbá land. The colonialists recorded it was a common site in Ilorin then.

also this Amotekun debate shows that we Yorùbás need a central authority in terms of reference book where we can turn to for accurate Yorùbá names of flora and fauna.

LandMann:
We all should put emotions, tribalism and ethnic hatred aside and examine this issue of Ametokun based purely on its merits and demerits and in light of existing laws.

The following points should guide us:

1. Internal security is an exclusive task of the FG. FG can give authority to state or local actors to improve security. Example; local vigilantes and some paramilitary organisation like Man o War must acquire police permission before operating... This is an example of FG giving other actors permission to act in improving security.

2. There's no federal law or agreement between federal and state outlining the activities to be covered by Ametokun, given the existence of police, nscdc and other existing internal security outfit... This agreement or law is important to avoid conflict between these organisations when issues of security occur. We're still dealing with superiority contest between FRSC, VIO, NSCDC, YELLOW FEVER, POLICE AND ARMY on our highways...

3. With no national law or agreement coupled with high level of illiteracy and unprofessionalism of most state workers, state governments can quickly start using Ametokun as instrument of oppression and a means of further looting state resources because security spending is often shrouded in secrecy, and even Ametokun members can take to crimes as side hustle when they start feeling dissatisfied with their salary. They have the training and the instrument of force (guns)... Who's going to prevent them from misusing both and how?

The above are just some issues worth considering.

If all the loopholes are properly plugged, then Ametokun can kick off.

We shouldn't cheer on the idea even with the obvious loopholes because it can quickly spread, every region can quickly have their own version of Ametokun and it won't be long before outside actors start smuggling weapons to these different regional Ametokuns and with the existing ethnic hatred, it won't take long before another civil war arises that will tear Nigeria apart and make current Libya and Iraq look like heaven compared to how Nigeria will look like.

We should protect our country, not our states or region or ethnic enclave.

Tinubu must be a selfish leader,his silence on the security situation in the south west irritates one.even if you are ambitious for power,one should know that your people is your number one priority.

Some people will say it is not the business of non Yoruba people but they have forgotten foreigners,non Yoruba people and Yoruba people travel on those roads in the south west.

The sad part of it is that the Igbo's did not add wisdom to their pursuit! The Yoruba's take a long time to execute their plans

Afenifere and Yoruba good morning. You people just woke up from your slumber. I wonder if it will last! By the way,who told you that you are more educated than the North? If your claim were right, why did you choose an illiterate and a certificate less rtd army general to be you your president over a doctor doctor degree holder? Why did you allow professor of law to be under a man that can't produce his WAEC certificate?
until you people join forces with Biafra and Niger delta,you still remain a toothless bulldog that will always do the bidding of the North.

b The Yoruba has seen that more than 50yrars ago Biko. The late Sage advocated for it around 1934 a. & when Chief S.L Akintola was the Leader of Opposition in the House of Parliament once said... Kala ku Yoruba Dobale fun Gambari, kaluku yio us se tie lototo ni ' i. e. Rather than the Yoruba to postrate to an Aboki, we rather go our separate ways. Beside what happened 50 years ago was as a result of the first Military Coup that was carried out by your wicked people . So go n read history bf coming here to make senseless posts.

Ustec:

Nice one from afenifere,
But stop believing aboki's are illiterates, those educated guys up north are so sound that you will end up doffing your cap when you gets to know them.

Educational qualification, does not, in any way, determine political success or position.
Alhaji Abubakar Tafawa Balewa was an Headmaster of a Middle school in Bauchi, prior to becoming Prime Minister of Nigeria, in 1957.
Nnamdi Azikiwe was a Doctoral student at Lincoln university as early as 1934 and he still served under Balewa as Governor General and ceremonial President between 1960 and 1966.

modsfucker:


Typing from your comfort zone as usual... It is rather ironic that you people keep calling us illiterates but we keep dictating how things run.

I want you to begin by asking yourself, why do I hate North this much? Do they hate me this much in return or am I just dancing on my own?

Well, to tell you the truth, nobody cares about you up North, so you can go and hug a nearby transformer.
