We’ll unveil new security outfit in South West, says Gani Adams

Aare Onakakanfo of Yorubaland, Iba Gani Adams has stated that a new security outfit that will compliment effort of the Western Nigeria Security Network, Operation Amotekun, and other security agencies in tackling the insecurity ravaging the region would soon be unveiled.

Speaking at a press conference in Lagos, he said the new security outfit would involve all security groups, traditional rulers and other stakeholders in the region.

He said stakeholders involved would deliberate on the issue in Ibadan Oyo State on March 17.

Adams and some members of the Yoruba socio-cultural group, Afenifere present at the press briefing also called on the six governors of the region to inject at least 15 per cent of their annual budget into agriculture.

Iba Adams, Afenifere spokesman, Yinka Odumakin and a chieftain of the group, Sola Lawal said investing a huge amount of money on agriculture will play a huge impact in providing sustainable food production for the region.

They condemned the recent protest by food sellers in the northern part of the country, which prevented food from the area from coming to the Southwest.

The trio said investment in agriculture would provide employment, enhance internally generated revenue, provide food security, reduce urban congestion and enlarge the coast for participatory modernised agriculture.

Adams explained that the Southwest spent a huge amount on food daily, adding that the protest was a clarion call to the Southwest leaders to provide the necessary security for farmers in order to produce enough agricultural produce.

But you guys were running amok when MNK set up ESN. God will have mercy on you guys.

EzeNri:
Watch how our Tu Face neighbours will stop bleating "ESN is not backed by law" now they are about to set up theirs.

MNK is always a step ahead. Thank you Director.

We support Omoluabis in their quest to defend Oodua land. We love Iba Gani Adams.

Dis is exactly why the South East are their own problems.. ESN was launched and instead of their various state govt's to adopt dem and legitimise the group, they supported the govt of the day to wage way on a group fighting for the security of the region..

EzeNri:

Incoherent rant.

Why are you guys setting up a SWSN after condemning ESN? Why not depend solely on your law-backed Amotekun?

Slattery, shady and unreliable.

Why are you always lurking in the shadows looking for a Yoruba topic to pounce on with negativity? How many Yorubas do this for Igbo, Arewa and SS thread or wherever the f.ck you're from?

Inferiority complex will kill you.

EzeNri:

Typical of afonjas.

Why are you people forming SWSN after running down ESN with your ewedu media?

Oshigun:


ESN shot themselves in the foot with their videos taunting the Fulani-led FG that was already cranky at the treatment of Fulanis across the SE and SW.

Blame SE Governors, very greedy and corrupt Fulani asslickers , for putting Kanu in that position in the first place. With Amotekun in place, no way the FG can reject any move by SE governors to initiate a similar South East security outfit.

The bottom.line is that your greedy leaders don't want to fund it and prefer for Igbos to continue dying. Not a fan of Kanu or his method but SE Governors put him in the position where Igbos were happy to welcome and embrace his effort rather than question it as illegal.

Your Governors are wicked and worthless. This is why I am amazed Igbos prefer to use their time attacking Yoruba leaders when their own leaders are by far the worst in Nigeria.

Oshigun:


Rubbish. Any new outfit would not be like ESN because only Igbos act illegally always to play into the hands of others.

Any new force could merely be touted to be a neigbourhood watch kind of thing. Not like ESN carrying sophisticated guns illegally. You Igbos are just bitter and difficult people who will always fall in holes you dig for yourselves..

Even the article says the new outfit will compliment the effort of all security agencies unlike ESN that touted itself an independent entity not answerable to anyone.

That you ignore the valid point about your worthless Governors, to be chatting bullcrap, just shows emotions will always rule the thinking of the average Igbo. You are in trouble because of your worthless Governors.

EzeNri:

Incoherent rant.

Why are you guys setting up a SWSN after condemning ESN? Why not depend solely on your law-backed Amotekun?

Slattery, shady and unreliable.

Oshigun:


Are you dumb? Is ESN legal to begin with before we even begin addressing the issue of them carrying guns? Any normal adult will of course criticize ESN because it is a militia the Government will have no choice to crush sooner or later lest others like it begin springing up everywhere.

You guys never change. Declare Biafra illegally against the Nigerian constitution to then blame Yorubas for lives lost through your own irresponsible action.

Same way Igbos swung behind illegal ESN to want to now cry Yorubas did not wish ESN well. How can anyone wish ESN well knowing how things will end and also in view of the inaction of your irresponsible Governors, the worst in Nigeria, derelicting their duties. Did you Igbos not indulge and ignore their misrule and incompetence in preference for foaming at the mouth about Sanwo Olu and Tinubu.

Hard to wish Igbos well if you dont know. You people are very difficult and unreaosnable. You expect the automatic backing of others for all you do whether legal or illegal.

jimyjames:



it's better to use illegal security outfit like ESN to protect our life's and properties, than a legal but useless security outfit like anotekun that is given sticks and hunter guns to protect yoruba land against killer herdsmen with AK47

Oshigun:


Well don't start looking for anyone to blame, especially your favourite Yoruba 'bogeymen', when the government clamps down on ESN which is effectively an outlawed militia.

You Igbos are patently lawless by nature and never learn. You always expect others to back and support every hasty, rash and ill-thought out thing you do. Legal or otherwise. When that does not happen you begin shouting 'saboteurs' and 'betrayers' up and down.
