“Cargo freight from Europe to Lagos ports is higher than from Europe to the Eastern ports, but despite that, Lagos became the official port under the policy of cargo destination since Obasanjo government. The pressure on Lagos ports also led to the explosion and failure of support infrastructure. The limit of unfair policy regime and unfair market control is what we are experiencing now.”
This is what has been drawing back functionality in other ports.
Why make the already congested port the official destination rather than decentralize?

Nonsense
Dead party, you had the chance but hardly drove the country upwards.
The APC isnt even trying to learn and soon same fate awaits them.

sarrki:
I am a patriot

I don’t support it against blindly like you guys

How blindly?
You're the one blind one cos you only see things wrong when it is against you.
Even the SE guys 90% if not all supports Amotekun abd didn't support the North with their ways just to spite the SW.
Now tell us who was blinded.
I was forced to go download Nnamdi Kanu's speeches which I ignored before cos I never liked his ways. I closed my ears to the rubbish words while seiving the real details and these happenings were what the guy projected.

amc:
You call ignoring a possible unconstitutional act a progressive mindset? If the "South" decided to keep quiet and ignore what might have been an unconstitutional act, don't now cry foul and blame the North for raising an objection when they see unconstitutional act that they feel is detrimental to their region. I have always said it that Nigerians in the South need to do an inward assessment of the purpose of their legislators who are being paid billions of Naira to represent them.

The truth is Civilian JTF's brief (counter-insurgency) is very different from Amotekun's (crime fighting). For obvious reasons, the former would need sophisticated weapons while the latter might not. So the poster comparing both is being disingenuous. Sadly going by the posts here, a lot of people have fallen for it.

Bros, wetin be this rubbish wey you dey talk?
The north raising objection to an unconstitutional act they still indulge in till date?
Oga, the South isnt so wicked and heartless to legislate against a venture to save lives up North.
Anyone against this Amotekun is heartless, wicked and insane.
What is this Amotekun sef?
Bros, na just normal vigilante wey person dey get for community ooo!
The grouse of most of you isnt the venture itself but the regional tone and an anticipation from you guys the bad eggs in herdsmen will be fished out.

sarrki:
Nnamdi kanu had wanted attack on Yoruba , Igbos and Hausa

You remembered he also threatened the south east governors too

It would have turned to ethno religious crises then

I understand your point but Sarrki let's be honest, did Kanu say worse than most of the leaders today?
Imagine the accusations of seccesion by Junaid and co just cos of this Amotekun oooo!
Amotekun wey just be normal security outfit ooo.
I DO NOT SUPPORT KANU either as even insulted the Igbos but not cos of the insult but his crude attitudes.

BabaRamota1980:
I like your confession but i think you have to say more than this.
For the people lost to python no one can recover their losses.

I supported Buhari also but during python i condemned the action. No one is more disgusted with ibo here than i am but we have to see and speak up against violation of people rights. That python was an abuse and not a political action, in fact its an hatred.

Ever since that time i laid low and am not as opposed to ibo as i used to be before. They were denied justice in python. Their hunan rights was grossly violated.

So Sarrki, i think your confessions here is good. You cannot undo what has been done. Learn and in future when Ibo is under attack try to see if its justified or not. If its not then stand up and speak up for them even against Buhari or anybody. Do that bro.

Thanks bro
GOD BLESS YOU
Truly, I felt bad when people here supported the python dance while innocent people and unarmed ppl were being humiliated and murdered. Though I never supported IPOB nor had a soft spot for them, my opinion changed that day about them.

sarrki:
The truth is FGN is divisive in security and every other things in Nigeria


It’s so saddening

Funny you
So cos the darts is against you now, you know. So, if it never came against you, you wouldn't have identified this?
I knew many time in this platform you attacked others who claimed Nigeria isn't fair to them, you called the children of hate, bitterness and enemies of Nigeria.
Guess now Sarrki has turneda child of hate, bitterness and an enemy of Nigeria.
Well done

Oshigun:
Myopic. You think Buhari and Tinubu will last forever? You think Yorubas are like others who are one-way traffic and only know how to make empty noise? The only thing constant in life is change. We cannot go on as things are regarding security. The North, whether they like it or not, will have to embrace liberalism and tolerance when in power otherwise their purported superior numbers , they think will always keep them in power, will matter zilch when the Yorubas spiritually disengage from Nigeria. This is what some of us have been telling Igbos for decades. Openly shouting and gnashing teeth is not the only way to get what you want.

I have long encouraged Igbos to be more insular and go for the jugular of Nigeria, with their purported trading and economic might, if they really want Biafra. Once the power that be see that Igbos are not smiling with them economically and financially then they may grant more concession towards regional autonomy. Yorubas will succeed where Igbos fail because we are different. I therefore look forward to Buhari dissolving Amotekun, thus showing he has no regard for us and the security of Yoruba lives, as you brag in this your post. See wether the Yorubas will just accept that, continue to watch their people being slaughtered and do nothing but make noise as others have always done in Nigeria.

Do you not see prominent Yorubas, from Soyinka to FFK and PDP to APC, speaking in unison over Amotekun and telling Miyeti Allah et al to FFK their Presidency? Without Presidency, which region is best and most highly-regarded in Nigeria? Bruv, who is Buhari or Tinubu when Yorubas become spiritually wedded to a cause or pursuit?

Lol
I would have kept quiet but I needed to clear some issues.
See, the SW thrives on the fact that other Southern tribes especially the Igbos are too forward (not funny nor play intrigues) when it comes to confronting the powers that be.
The SW is always on the fence when issues of other Southern part vs North but other Southern parts supports any ideology of the Yorubas without recourse to their selfish interest.
Imagine IPOB & Kanu commending Amotekun but I bet you the SW would have rejected this if it were to be the other way round.
If the Igbos and other Minor tribes dares take sides with the North on this Amotekun, it will die a natural death.
BTW, top SW leaders in APC are silent on this and I'm sure they will remain so.
Stop the pride as the SW has never tried any upset on its own.

Kwamecron:
Ugly

Bigotry wont let you see good things abi?

OAUTemitayo:
It is also the turn of Ibibios, Tiv, Jukun and other tribes that are also part of Nigeria.

Thanks bro
No need for all those rotations really if these leaders will behave themselves and do well when on that seat of power

Xisnin:
You don't get politics.
He is an Ipob member who is bitter that Ipob was declared a terrorist group and the BSS died while Amotekun
is being tolerated with mere media criticism.
It doesn't matter what kanu says, what Ipob does is all that matters.

IPOB has berated the SE govs and commended the SW govs
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.sunnewsonline.com/operation-amotekun-ipob-berates-seast-governors-ohanaeze/amp/
Inasmuch as IPOB can be crude sometimes, they have solidly propagated their ideology.
Don't mind that Moniker, he doesn't know what he is saying at all, at all

This is beautiful bro

Amotekun777:
Something is definitely wrong somewhere... regardless, that's really messed up. Stupid Children!

Guy, I love this name of yours.
Lol
Na jinx breaker. Lol

PassingShot:
Apart from your goal to acquire "likes" to build mansion, you haven't said anything with this post.

As a sitting governor that he now is, advise us what the FG can do about him or his case?

We have said many times that governors should not enjoy immunity but many PDP apologists kicked against it.

PDP apologists?
Ok no longer PDP now?
So, since the APC is now in control of both the upper & lower chambers, what have they done or doing? You guys keep referencing the evil PDP as a standard you follow, then the APC is also evil
You guys really need to quit this useless political game and face the truth.
I'm not saying Uzodinma should not be allowed to govern as he may even be less of a criminal than the Ihedioha but at least stand for the truth.

[quote author= post=85915936]Good way to start governance.

God bless Imo state.

God bless Nigeria.



Nairalanders must respect the GOLDEN WORDS of elders such as this.
This is a man of wisdom.
Only criminals will not see sense in this post.
We've said it many times that immunity has done more harm than good to us as a nation.
But the thieves, looters and rapists keep telling us to keep shut...that they want it that way.

Politics of bitterness and senselessness is dangerous.
Children of hate, perdition and frustration.....becareful before it consumes you all!
We Rise!
[/quote]And of all the rubbish written, no mention of the said crime he is being accused of.
Thank GOD for the internet; Nigerians should now see the kind of people we have in the affairs of this country and kind of moles they plant to defend them on social media.
That is how Oga of Masters Enerty owed his workers over 1year salary and they were still forced to work yet he was appointed.
My joy is that, GOD provides for HIS own and if the common man will not stand for the truth the evil men will perpetually keep them down excluding me and those standing for the truth.
So because PDP resisted it, the saint party APC now enjoys it?
People of Nigeria, see your problems?
Evil men hungry for power in disguise of bringing light

Xisnin:
You seem to be practicing some recently learned words albeit.
Registration is soaring at designated centers.
Neither Fulanis nor the bitter Ipob BSS members have a say in this issue.
Now run along to play with your mate.

See them bitter ass
Wetin concern IPOB with this?
The IPOB sef has even supported the ideology of Amotekun and you still had to rope them in?
Oga collect sense.

[quote author= post=85917020]Okay Junior wailer.
We never for one day read any of your rubbish red posts anyways, we always 'jump am pass'!
Go call your senior wailers that we were all here before the election to come back and have a conversation with us.
Gone are the days that we have meaningful and mature political discussions on Nairaland.
Now kids have taken over.
All they can do is to curse, abuse their mother's mate.
Replying you young, wailing attention seeker is a waste of time.
Read our signature one more time.
Bye kiddo ![/quote]And you were the one who first rained ribald on this thread on FFK & KANU?
HIGHpocrit

Tzben:
While you've got a nice point, don't forget that some states already have their security outfits funded by the government and are not seen as illegal. Basically, Amotekun is almost like that, difference is SW governors came together and set it up...From the way I see it, this will set in motion Regional policing or state police.

GOD BLESS YOU BRO
This Amotekun ideology isnt even new as some govs are doing it already.
Lagos has the Neighborhood watch

[quote author= post=85916733]@the bolded, you have a good point there.
We are waiting for the founder to lecture us about the discrepancy in registration due to a member's religion.[/quote]Oh God!
This is the height of it
Make una come see MURIC dem people, the religion-card playing people.
Oga, Amotekun has nothing to do with religion but entirely a SW thing. In fact, I know the Yorubas too well that I may say this Amotekun will be more of an Ogun & Ifa backbone stuff but liberal enough.
Oga be reasonable

Osagyefo98:
Amotekun is purely Illegal young man.

Go to their office at Ibadan and declare it illegal or become a nuisance there and see if they are illegal.
People cannot reason in this country again due to bigotry

myobjective:
They live for Lagos because it is their el dorado not the fault of any contraption called Nigeria. Igbos need Nigeria not the other way around, you go to other Nigeria because you are retailer and need people with purchasing power, the south-east don't have the purchasing power of the North and West that is why you all rush to these areas for greener pasture not because of the design of any government.

Lol, China needs the purchasing power of the US but the US cant do without China's cheap labor.
See, Nigeria needs the Igbos badly if not, secession would have happened a long time ago.
Do you run a business?
Have you ever tried one?
Do you know what it means to run a business in Nigeria without debt insurance, huge taxes and aguero wahala, bad roads & other infrastructures?
Do you know how hard it is to redistribute a single product, making it available within a sphere,
Oga, the expertise those guys offer you is unequalled and you will never understand it

Please is this news true?

Bola Tinubu, National Leader of the
All Progressives Congress (APC), has reportedly said the newly launched security outfit in South-West, Operation ‘Amotekun’, is a good innovation, but it is what the region needs.
Tinubu, a prominent personality from the region, had not made any comment since the five governors in the geo-political zone launched the initiative to tackle insecurity in their states.

The federal government on Tuesday, through Abubakar Malami, the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF), labelled the outfit as illegal and unconstitutional, despite the governors insisting that they carried the government along on the initiative.
However, many have lauded the initiative from other parts of the country, except for antagonism coming from Northern groups.

According to a statement credited to him, Tinubu commended the initiative, but said it is far from what the region needs.
“Amotekun is a good innovation but is not what the Southwest need,” he was quoted as saying by Voice of Nasarawa.

myobjective:
Don't be smart by half, the question you must be asking yourself is why do your people live this paradise behind to head to states like Osun, Kwara, Ondo and Oyo?
Lagos is a state with a population of over 20m people, this put much constrain on infrastructure and with a meager revenue and expenditure of $3b dollars the state is doing well compare to states in the east that get free money from federal government without anything to show for it.
You people need to stop masturbating and disturbing yourself about affairs of others while neglecting your own affairs and region. Please channel your energy in criticizing your government just as we don't see Northerners here criticizing other regions leaders but why must you guys criticize others always.

It is only a fool who will argue that any state is better than Lagos in revenue. You only got blind to my argument.
The guy I quoted mocked Abia & Enugu for kerosene while a while Lagos was dishing out garri & gnut.
Oga, who would you say does better?
The Igbos dont leave the east for Lagos cos it is El Dorado but a fault of this contraption Nigeria.
Lagos is the closest airport, seaport, even embassies started relocating to Abuja recently. So Lagos us like the door to Lagos.
Igbos especial migrate for businesses, I bet you can find an Igbo man close to Sambisa selling food items or even IDP camps selling recharge vouchers.
I also believe Lagos is overchoked and people should be deported to their states cos Lagos is un deep shit now and hardly habitable safe for the highbrow areas.
Lol @Northerners dont criticize other regions?
And they are fighting your Amotekun? Guy, go and sleep.
Just like Tinubu, you'll always vow to them even when you're being stepped on.

NGpatriot:
Luckily for the people of the SW, they don't take political and leadership advise from your losing part of Nigeria.

I just don't know why you people are always obsessed with the SW and never your own wheelbarrow and kerosene governors.

Wheel Barrow from Enugu and Kerosene from Abia, right?
Yet Garri and Gnut in a whole Lagos with revenue almost 4 multiples to that of these states.
Does it ring a bell?
Oga GSM has really been doing well for his people, has also declared his assets and made it public unlike your crook leaders.
Meanwhile, Oga Tinubu says Amotekun is not what you need now.

Ryan03:
but you guys use few police men to judge the entire force?

Bros, I am over 30 and I can tell you that I cannot remember more than 2cases I have witnessed myself where the police behaved well.
I mean, those guys are beasts and over 90% of them are

dominique:
Go and tell that to the loved ones of people that have been killed by reckless drivers that drove on the wrong lane. If the deceased hadn't broken rules, maybe this terrible tragedy would have been avoided. They know the kind of police they have and they literally drove themselves into their hands. You're now expecting me not to highlight the exact reason that landed him in problem in the the first place. You must be a joker

I just wonder the kind of beast Nigeria has grown out of its citizens. You seriously typed this rubbish?
So cos he flaunted a road rule, he was tortured to death and then framed?
Maybe we should pray that anytime you flaunt even the slightest rule, you should face same fate? Would you like it?

Seetto:


Please we need amotekun and kini-untekun.
.

Hahahahahaaa
Not mocking the dead
We also need Banditekun

jimyjames:
Rejoice in what? Did you see me rejoicing over the death of my own people ?

Ok.
Thanks bro
Good health, better feeding and a graceful childhood I pray for every child going through pains at the IDP camps, the North and Nigeria as a whole.

BabaRamota1980:
Sharia is not Hisbah.

I was talking about Hisbah.

You lack knowledge. Stop givig us a show &tell dramatization of your backwardly educated mind.

Sharia is jurisprudence
Hisbah is an enforcement unit.

Let me use a very simple analogy, it seems my post is too well written for your grasp.

Let's say a father enrolls his two children in ABC nursery school. The school has a curriculum and scheduled instructions. When the children have homework someone has to make sure they are done. Children naturally want to play not do homework. To get the homework done parents enforce discipline. The discipline at home is not part of school curriculum but it acts as a reinforcement to learning and progress.

View the curriculum as sharia, and hisbah as the disciplinary path.

You don get am now?

You insisted Hisbah was established to enforce a customary way.
Please what's the customary edict they are enforcing if not Sharia?
Hisbah is a verb form of the noun sharia
Hypocrisy

Anazp:
igbos have no history. Tell us where did the igbos originate from?at least you have Yoruba history dated way back the 1400s. Show us igbo history in the 1400s and their achievements as a state

You didn't tell us about the Yoruba history and you've now limited it to the 1400s?
Here you go with it, read yourself (https://faculty.ucr.edu/~legneref/igbo/igbo1.htm).
Your problem is lack of exposure and premising your whole life on rumors you heard rather than on facts.
