The Speaker, Funminiyi Afuye, said, “Having passed through the third reading, the bill has become a law.”

We need social media law to regulate fake news, the Amotekun is community policing, which is allowed for states , that's why each state has to pass its bill, for it to come to force. Which means its not a regional force but state vigilantes.
We pray that the state governors DO NOT play with their salaries, for we are still suffering from the poor funding of our teachers, federal police & SARS.

It's a great thing going on. We are beginning to see the hands of the Fulani north passed through the anus of some leaders of northern extraction, moving their lips in the process. They are suddenly "doing their jobs". Trying to define what Àmòtékùn is. 0

Àmòtékùn is a regional security outfit. But if it makes you sleep well at night, you could say it's not.

And her aim is clear, secure the lives of people doing LAWFUL businesses in SW.

Protect the people against AK carrying Fulani herders who destroys people's property, and kill and maim them. Protect the people against kidnapping and other vices that tends to destroy their economy amongst others.

you can't be looking while some people are roaming in your forests with dangerous weapons.

PS: NIgeria security architecture has become a tribal and a malicious tool. All my life on earth, I am yet to see one AK carrying herder arrested and prosecuted to logical end.
