Pipe dream

You still need approval to operate and bear arms, Mr We-Are-The-Law

It has been approved by the respective State House of Assemblies, giving power of arm control to their Governors. IGP is empowered by the ACT to designate authorizing and licensing powers to qualified persons. The Governors have been qualified by their State Laws.

What else?

To you Nigeria is so lawless to the point that any state can decide to form a military, Para-Millitary, police etc and arm them as they wish?

Let me tell you, only the Federal government has the prerogative to do the above according to the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Amotokun is in the category of vigilantes or community policing whose job is to assist the police or military with accurate information about criminal activities in their area.

Was that why the FG armed the Fulani bandits who drive cattle with AK47?

Las Las, even the Amotekun will end being a paper tiger with police regulating how it is going to function. Everything has finally become a mirage after all the noise. IPOB seems to be winning the race.

there is no sense in this your post none at all

Amotekun is dead.

Please stop all these egoism.

The outfit is dead and gone to dogs.

The creation of Amotekun as a "new" vigilante group, is merely a tactical exercise in semantics, deployed by state governors in order to bypass the unofficial federal POLICY that cattle grazing land should be forcibly annexed by armed cowboys, from farmers hitherto relied upon to feed the entire nation.

The bottom line is that southern states ALREADY operate vigilante forces duly recognized as such by the federal government, and for the avoidance of doubt, those state-tenured vigilante men ARE suitably armed to neutralize terrorist cow herding gangs, with pump action and semi auto shotguns widely distributed among such groups, for most of the past decade.

The formation of Amotekun in the southwest, and of the new Obuniigwe vigilante group emerging in Igboland, are to all intents and purposes, an overdue response to the expanding existential threat posed by terrorist cattle herding gangs who destroy the nation's food supply, one farm of ripening crops at a time.

The upshot of this story is that in the near future, Nigeria's individual states will embrace their RIGHT and DUTY to have stray cattle shot on sight, essentially as has been the standing policy in Ghana, where the concept of crop-eating bandit cattle swarms, is largely unknown due to preemptive government policy on such matters.

I honestly think people just talk nonsense without use of discretion.

When IGP is addressing Northerners or Easterners he can remind them of the law and statutes of Firearms Act.

When he addresses Westerners on issues of law and statutory contracts we do not need a reminder, WE ARE THE LAW!

OP,
dont allow IGP to scare you with Firearms Act. We already identified the loophole in the Act, and we are exploiting the loophole to apply for license, period!

This is a new group that very recently made the news. Their primary task will be to kill cattle that stray into farms, along with any misguided elements that try to oppose the routine pest eradication exercise.

Thank you for your support, and God bless Nigeria.

How do you expect people that will be moving inside the bush searching for kidnappers without bearing arms. We must do everything possible to curb the rate of insecurity in our country.

Fear mongering is bad for one's health, sir. The new vigilante group is, for your information, the same as the OLD vigilante group, since it is only the NAME of the outfit that has been changed, so that this new name can provide the needed authority under which individual states can vigorously pursue a ZERO TOLERANCE policy when it comes to crop-destroying cattle herds, whereby the Amotekun boys in the nation's south west, and the Obuniigwe warriors in the south east, will primarily be engaged offering cattle eradication services on farmland, lighting up the invaders with withering barrages of corrective gunfire, as needed.
