FG Approved AK47 For Katsina Outfit, Ondo Will Buy For Amotekun - Akeredolu

Ondo Governor Rotimi Akeredolu has lambasted the Federal Government of Nigeria, noting that the country cannot have two systems.

In a statement on Thursday, Akeredolu reacted to the video showing the Katsina security outfit obtaining the approval to bear arms.

The governor said this followed government’s denial of the Western Nigeria Security Network (Amotekun Corps) to carry assault rifles despite terror attacks.

Akeredolu noted that denying Amotekun the rights to legitimately bear arms is a repudiation of the basis of true federalism which we have been clamoring for.

“That Katsina was able to arm its state security force, with the display of AK47 means we are pursuing one country, two systems solution to the national question.

“If the Katsina situation conferring advantages on some, in the face of commonly faced existential threats, it means that our unitary policing system, which has failed, is a deliberate method of subjugation which must be challenged.”

The governor said Nigeria’s independence agreement was based on a democratic arrangement to have a federal state and devolved internal security mechanics. We must go back to that agreement.

He added that denying Amotekun the right to bear arms exposes the Southwest to life-threatening marauders and organized crime.

“It is also a deliberate destruction of our agricultural sector. It is an existential threat. We want to reiterate, that what is sauce for the goose, is sauce for the gander.”

The statement announced that the Ondo government, under the doctrine of necessity, “have decided to fulfil its legal, constitutional and moral duty to the citizens of the State, by acquiring arms to protect them”.

“This is more so, given that the bandits have an unchecked access to sophisticated weapons. The State government cannot look on while its citizens are being terrorized and murdered with impunity. We will defend our people.”

What is good for the goose is also good for the gander.
With the Owo church massacre and the inconclusive arrest and investigation, your action is fully justified.
You owe your citizens the right to protect them
Ogbeni, go ahead, buy SMG, buy anti missile aircraft, we de your back.

Naija my country

Like seriously

The gov put it in proper perspective as though the FG of nigeria plans to subjugate the rest of the country under the northern perpetual both political and economy slavery which only a dogged southern politician can correct.

Those shouting Obi dont love the south or is either they lack understanding of contemporary local politics of which nigeria isn't exception or they are on a self serving religion and ethnic mission which can becloud their sense of good or natural judgement.

There's a reason most northerners dont trust IGBOS, it is on record, that they can't trusted with power Buhari nepotistic presidency will be learning. An ordinary IGBO man likes only himself and few cohort around him. IGBO dont hide their hatred of other tribes. What an Hausa man does to further his ethnic agenda, an IGBO man would do worst.

Dont forget, IGBOS started the first couple in this country!

Peter Obi can't take the bull by the horn, he lacks political will to ruthlessly lead nigeria of every Obidients dream to its promise land.

Just like my mentor book "THE PRINCE" which insisted that only those who understand the art of politics should be allowed to govern...this is rightly so because only a man who has a lion face and a fox heart should lead the state.

Can we be true to ourselves?

Does Peter Obi have what the office entails? Presidency of nigeria isn't a child plays for kids or for any kinds of experiments of sorts.


Vote Bola Hamed Tinubu is the man to beat, the man of our contemporary world order.....

Mr Talk and do the only Governor who can face FG carry go. Na God bring you this time let them know not like other mumu Governor

Akeredolu just like deceiving himself with this outdated tactics pretending to be fighting FG because of Ondo people or Yoruba people.

Mr Akeredolu nobody is stopping you from campaigning for Tinubu but stop deceiving your Yoruba people with your audio fight with FG.
