Amotekun: The Test..... by chosengocap: 2:14pm On Jan 17, 2020
"Most of the things Igbos are doing in Lagos, no one dares try
such in their states."
The above was a common saying among Yorubas in 2015 and
also in 2019. But it was deeper than this.
While Hausa Fulani and the Northern establishment saw Buhari
as their pet project, they left the job of fighting the Igbos
squarely with the Yorubas.
And we did a good job of it. And while at it, the cabal was
chuckling.
If you noticed, in 2015 and 2019, Hausas never fought the
Igbos. But in Lagos, the anti-Igbo sentiment was so deep
which culminated in violence that erupted at Ago Palace Way
during the last election.
You remember the drowning in the Lagoon metaphor by the
Oba of Lagos.
Successfully, the Northern cabal set the Southwest against the
Southeast.
And what was the bait?
Osinbajo.
He was pushed forward as the poster boy of the
administration. He practically led the campaign and the
slogan: think Osinbajo, vote Buhari. We were made to believe
that Buhari returning in 2019 was all Osinbajo needed for 2023.
Buhari returned and the daggers were out.
Now, Osinbajo has been reduced to a lame duck VP.
As Fulani herdsmen nearly turned the Southwest to a
conquered territory, doing things they dare not try in their own
areas, the idea of Amotekun came up.
And you know what? The Igbos are standing with the Yorubas
as the North attempts to kill the idea.
Amotekun, even if it was a political gimmick on the part of the
governors, might be one move the entire South needs to reset
its political brains.
The game is on...

We don't care much about the past,

We the Igbos care much about the future,

That's why we are supporting Amotekun !
