What a masterful play by the man Tinubu. Up until his statement, many, including me, thought he would be in serious trouble whichever side he supports. But with his statement, he struck a very delicate balance and came out with his leadership skills enhanced. By saying he will discuss a revised modality with the Governors, he has also given the governors a soft landing. The Governor that has taken the biggest dent to his national leadership reputation is Fayemi who released a statement saying Tinubu is 'entitled to his own opinion'. Those in Aso Rock are unlikely to forget. 1 Like |

BuhariAdvocate:Was Obasanjo consulted before hisbah was formed? Was Jonathan consulted before cjtf was formed? Governors are not subordinate to the president. They are chief executives for their states and have the authority to carry out policies without the approval of anyone except their state assemblies. |
Re: Amotekun Comment: South-West Governors Back Tinubu by Nobody: 9:27am On Jan 23, 2020 |
Agboriotejoye: Then they should pass relevant laws pertaining to the establishment of a regional security outfit. That is what the AG said, it is what Tinubu proposed; and it is absolutely correct. Where is the opposition to Amotekun if it is only pointed out that it remains unconstitutional until the relevant laws enable it? I have not seen a single statement made by Tinubu in that speech that can be objectively faulted. Yoruba people should not allow others to push them into adopting hatred and victimisation attitudes. 2 Likes |

My only fear is once Amotekun is granted. other region will follow suit. in having regional policing which is more deadlier, because any misunderstanding between two regional security outfit will be termed to 'war' in this weak Nigeria. |

RisenPhoenix:I'm not sure you're well informed on this matter. The opposition to amotekun didn't start from the AGF. It started from Miyetti Allah. Then ACF before the AGF joined in with his legal rubbish. Truth is, the whole story of "take it to the state assembly" is simply giving the opposition elements a stake in the implementation. We all know why Miyetti Allah are against it. And the AGF is also acting out a script being pushed by some powerful elements. All the talk of illegality is balderdash. If not, why has the AGf not declared the cjtf illegal or even the Chadian army that was on Nigerian soil for close to three years undermining our territorial integrity? |

Citytrend:The guy analize the matter well before he spoke, as a man of ambition, he cannot afford to lose all he as work for, in support of his people, that he can't even trust, therefore, in order to win on both side, he had to Be in support of the two. Ensuring that amotekun stand, and Nigeria is not divided, in order for him to fulfill his ambition, which we can only hope is a good one. But notwithstanding, an ambitious man will never watch is ambition go down the drain. If I'm the one, that's also what I will do. |

Agboriotejoye: I remember the AGF declaring it unconstitutional before Miyetti Allah's statement. In any case, the pertinent question is, is it or is it not actually unconstitutional? That is the focus and it is not balderdash, nor do whataboutism arguments justify it. I have no idea what legal process was used to justify the CJTF or the Chadian army, but it does not matter in this case. That is a seperate legal event and should be challenged seperately. The point is that since the governors have the power to set up enabling laws for Amotekun, they should do so in consultation with the relevant legal bodies like the AGF's office. Until then, both the AGF and Tinubu are technically correct. Why is that so difficult to understand? Opposition or not, legal process must be followed, otherwise everything descends into chaos. As for me, the only actual (not imagined) opposition to Amotekun that I have seen seems to come from Miyetti Allah alone; and it is understandable; they believe that it is directed at them. They are entitled to their opinion no matter how irrelevant, and I do not see them as a group that one should lose sleep over; nor does their opinion merit all this brouhaha. 1 Like |

RisenPhoenix:https://www.vanguardngr.com/2020/01/why-amotekun-is-illegal-%E2%81%A0-agf/amp/ https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.vanguardngr.com/2020/01/amotekun-no-harm-in-synergizing-but-acf/amp Check those links. It was the ACF that first spoke of the constitutionality of amotekun before the AGF said it. The Miyetti Allah joined the chorus soon after. You have no idea because there's simply no legal process for CJTF or Chadian army. They were incorporated based on the president's directive and no one raised the legality or otherwise of it. This is relevant because declaring amotekun illegal by FG should by extension mean CJTF is also illegal. You can't allow one why stopping the other. States are autonomous entities and have no business consulting with AGF how their states should be run or which laws to make. If they do something the FG is not comfortable with, the right thing is to approach the courts not declare them illegal. That was settled by the supreme court during the OBJ vs Tinubu local govt matter. Now to the other matter, how come Miyetti Allah do not think the police or army operations in Benue and Plateau is targeted at them but think amotekun is targeted at them. We should ask ourselves why a group will be jittery at a security initiative if they're not themselves criminals. I remember when lastma first started in Lagos, FRSC were against them because they felt they were brought to usurp their duties. Later on, lastma were restricted from federal roads while FRSC were restricted from state roads. This is the idea of autonomy of states. No FG or AGF has the rights to trample on it. |

selemempe: If Nigeria must not remain one, must we go the way of Yugoslavia?. Why can't we go the way of Chechoslovakia?, that is now Slovakia and Chech republic. Any tribe that have another 2 million lives to throw away doesn't need to wait for another Nigerian civil war, they should order for containers of snippers and commit mass suicide, they should also remember to invite their friends Afeniferawon to the madness.

Tinubu has spoken as a great leader. Afenifere is no sometimes different from MUMURIC, all what they sometimes do is to attack attack and attack unnecessarily. You’re always against Jagaban and don’t see him as a leader yet you’re attacking him to “talk as a leader”. Why the confusion Afenifere? Well without your support Tinubu can be President of this country. Una no kuku support OBJ and he won. |
Re: Amotekun Comment: South-West Governors Back Tinubu by Nobody: 1:35pm On Jan 23, 2020 |
Amotekun is dead already. I will urge my south west brothers to stop heating the polity. Jagaban statement on Amotekun support Malami and miyetti Allah narrative of it. Now supported by these governors. Why do some people without liver like making so much noise. They should stop wasting our time and focus on getting 2023 presidency from their masters. valentineuwakwe: |
