LAGOS- Dr. Junaid Mohammed, elder statesman and Second Republic federal lawmaker has said the Western Nigeria Security Network (WNSN), codenamed Operation Amotekun did not live up to its responsibilities during the #EndSARS protests mayhem in Lagos and some South-West states.

Hoodlums, who seized the #EndSARS protests, unleashed an orgy of violence resulting in the destruction of public and private assets.

Speaking in an interview with INDEPENDENT, Junaid also condemned pan- Yoruba socio-political organisation, Afenifere and its leader, Chief Ayo Adebanjo, whom he said threatened South-West governors with revolt if they failed to establish Amotekun in their respective states.

He said: “These characters in Afenifere under this Ayo Adebanjo are making noise and saying publicly that if Yoruba governors don’t create Amotekun, they are going to incite their people against the government. A responsible man will never say this.

“If they want to create a crisis because you don’t like some people, fine. Other people will also create their problems. We were told that Amotekun is a harmless but effective security organisation. Now we are having #EndSARS crisis with looting and arson, have you seen one Amotekun official or a single-vehicle anywhere in the South-West? They simply disappeared".

“Let me tell you this and I have been saying it in the past 30 years. If every state in Nigeria can take of their own security, Kano my home state and Lagos can never do that because they don’t have the manpower. Kano and Lagos people don’t join the police force because they are mostly business people and traders.

“I want to throw a challenge to the federal government. Let them withdraw all the security operatives in Lagos and Kano. Let’s see how there will be peace there,” he said.

Ok

The last time I checked, today is Monday

Why is this WASTEful Head slammer against the peace and betterment of Southern Nigeria? All for the caliphate or sheer ignorance?

What is the correlation between mob action and Amotekun? Junaid should go & sit down.
He's pained that Amotekun no longer allow their cows to destroy our farms.

Southern Nigerians cannot tolerate invasion of our villages any longer. If you are not OK with it, go and sit down

amotekum are bunch of political appointees

are you normal?

A head without sense is an empty head.

We even joined the protest or what rubbish is this old man saying

Oh, you are looking for them to fix your mess? Sorry Na Federal self created mess. Let the Federal government take care of their mess. Their children are protesting your stupidity you want them to go and kill their own children for you. You see your brain is not working well.

So according to this Junaid of a guy, Amotekun should have joined the Federal security forces to kill their own brothers and sisters.
Mr Junaid, Blood is thicker than water

Has the illegal Hisbah/Sharia police ever helped to contained the spread of violence during sectarian crisis in the core north? What does this Junaid Mohammed takes himself for? Dumbass brain.

.. Because it's not its duty.. Amotekun is a law-abiding network... It will not usurp the powers of the police and other law enforcement agencies.. Their duty is to "assist".. security agencies to combat terrorism, banditry, armed robbery, Herdsmen and farmers clashes and not to "takeover" their(security agencies) duties...

The people that looted and destroyed things during the protests were angry and hungry protesters and hoodlums too.. We should stop blaming hoodlums alone.. In fact, all the looters I saw were all hungry protesters, whom the media preferred to call "hoodlums"..

May God heal Nigeria

Ode, amotekun is now the Nigerian police or the main primary law enforcement agency in Nigeria?

These dumb armchair critics no dey even pretend to nurse basic common sense.

Amotekun is smart,I like their neutral stance during this protest...

Ok

Amotekun was active where they have being operation. They arrested several looters and protected some public places in Ondo.

Junaid, did you want Hoodlums and unidentified Army Miyetti Allah FULANI HOOLIGANS to kill them? Maybe they were the Targets of unknown Soldiers. ENDSARS PROTESTS took everyone unawares but God loves them and DELIVERED them from the EVIL.

If you want to know why it failed.

Quote me and I will drop the link

How does this concern Junaid Mohammed? I blame the blogs and newspapers reporting this foolish cow.

Why is everyone putting their nose in our business..... Aja awa, eran awa.... Olongbon afeke bonku na a sotie.. Who we offend? Amotekun is non of your business sir!

That's not my concern.

My concern is, what happened to the agitation for oduduwa that rocked SW on Oct 1st?

Stop referring to this man as an elder statesman.

He is simply behaving like kiddo

Junaid is a junkie. All his eyes are on Tinubu money for 2023 polls. He's been hailing Tinubu for President so that at least Campaign DG go fall for him hand and he as Fulani thief will swallow his Tinubu billions!
Just watch this comment for 2023
