Why Is Amotekun Only Resisted By North West And North East? by Atouke: 4:53pm On Jan 19, 2020
I am curious as to why the opposition to the creation of the southwest security network otherwise known as Amotekun is only resisted by the people of the Northwest and North eastern region of the country?

The South east,
The North central
The South South and certainly,
The South West are in support of protecting the life of their citizens in light of the failure of the federal security agencies to do so, and hence their support for Amotekun.

Is it because these two regions have an agenda that the other 4 regions of the country are unaware?

Is the NE and NW in support of insecurity going on in the country?

Is it true as Obasanjo and danjuma warned that there is a collusion to subdued the 4 other region by supremacist from the NE and NW?

Is there an islamization agenda in Nigeria?

Is there a particular reason why all the security chiefs except one are from the North east and North West?

These are some of the questions plaguing my mind .
What do you guys think?

Funny how anyone against amotekun is insulted. Makes me think amotekun supporters can't use their brains.

Oops! Obviously they can't! That's why they want guns lol, so they can shoot and kill instead.

Actually Amotekun is Illegal and a terrorist organization in future if not check mated and disbanded now.

Even South west Muslims e.g Muric are not support of it.

Who told others are in support of it.

Amotekun should be allowed a natural death and phased out like others.

If SW needs Amotekun they know the right thing to do not just crying foul up and down.

Amotekun is an Illegal security outfit.

Why don't you guys research before making claims you cant back up? The north west governors already said they wanted something similar. Your issue is with the federal government. The ultimate solution is to amend the constitution to allow any tier of government to have their own police force and prisons. It also be smart to amend exclusive list item 2 and 1990 fire arms act.

Shalom to you too.

Painting others with a label you wish they wore is a sort of blindness. It shows that the crap you create in your head and believe is more important to you than actual reality.

I wonder why you'd expect non-blind people to take you serious if you are willing to create crap in your head about a fellow human being of whom you can check your assumptions instead of making an ass out of yourself.

The NE & NW are the core North. For them, they control Nigeria and say what goes. Thats why they see any Regional movement that empowers the people, such as IPOB and Amotekun, as a threat to their control.

They will do everything they can to destroy that movement

Why are they afraid of regional movement, is it because they can't survive without other region?

North east and north west are not against Amotekun. Fulanis are the only ones against it for obvious reasons. They are not comfortable with leaving the security of Fulanis in the south west to a security organization that is not controlled from Abuja by a northerner.

Exactly. For the core North, the South is a conquered territory that exists to support them. Dont forget that the wealth and economy of Nigeria is in the south. The only thing the North has is political power.

Any Regional movement such as Amotekun or Biafra is a threat to their power and they will do whatever they can to destroy that movement, especially now that one them is in power

Well too bad, we all know that you can never force friendship or any kind of relationship forever, it may last a while, but that bond will collapse one day if not today, very soon.

And that's a fact.

For how long,even if they succeed in the short term, Buhari will not be president for ever and the fulani will not control all the security agencies in the country for ever.

That is why Buhari needs to rise above ethnic and political considerations and seek a political solution to the matter.

Instead of Fulani elites making noise and issuing meaningless threats all over the place, they should encourage the federal government to sit down with the south west state governments and agree to an operational procedure that will see the new regional outfit work closely with existing federal agencies.

All the southwest need is enabling laws from each of the 6 state houses of assembly to operationnalize Amotekun.

Legal backing is crucial but not enough. A compromise is needed between the federal and state governments. Amotekun will fail if there is no synergy between the outfit and existing federal security agencies. In fact, a face off will further compound the security situation in the country.

Amotekun is a regional neighborhood watch.
Our present laws permits that .
If not hisbah police in the North west states will not be constitutional. Hisbah exists because it is there to watch that the neighborhood religious sharia codes are enforced.

Amotekun will enforce security codes of the yoruba regional neighborhood.

We are talking state initiatives in a fulani non cooperative FG.

All am saying is that the state can make and enforce it's own codes inline with existing laws.

Is there any other law that allows Hisbah and civilan JTF to function presently in the NW and NE? Except the neighborhood watch codes?

Civilian JTF is a federal government creation. Hisbah is not legally empowered to carry arms. Amotekun on the other hand is designed to carry sophisticated arms. So, that is where the problem is and that’s why a political solution is required. OBJ allowed sharia for political expediency, Buhari can also do the same now.

False Amotekun is not designed to carry guns but to gather intelligence. It's a regional neighborhood watch.

Those who may carry guns are those who will obtain gun permit from the FG.
So far there are several private security agencies and private individuals that have legal gun permit
In Nigeria. I have a personal gun permit.
If I were to be a member of my local neighborhood watch, am permitted by law to bring my gun alongside.

Hisbah has state legislation and each operates on her own independent of any other.

Amotekun can also function as such by making it state affairs which it's legislation will follow than regional affair that had no legislative or constitutional backing.

SW shouldn't think or trying to be smart by quarter. If they want Amotekun as regional security outfit then let them push for full constitutional review and insertion of everything that needs to be in a constitution both referendum. Till then will the constitutional review grant them regions Amotekun because they will now make such legal constitutionally.

If not so, they are just wasting their time and trying to play smart by whipping sentiments. If they really want restructuring and not all these their media restructuring this is the best way to go then.

Until then Amotekun is a terrorist organization.
