Okay na. All na propaganda. Just know that wise and humble men learn from what others are doing better than them.

Whereas arrogant, megalomaniac and emptily pompous individual fail serially because they dismiss the need to learn from others as they believe they are better than all else. That is the case with you lot.
Brother cool down with the wrong stories. UN didn't recognize world Amotekun day, all na propaganda. I am not interested in either Amotekun or ESN because these two are as a result of the failure of leadership. If we had leaders who were up and doing. Proper reorganisation amd funding of police would be a priority and there will be no need for state sponsored vigilantes.
For the record UN doesn't recognize vigilantes whether state sponsored or not.

One of the greatest legacies of Aketi. He married an Igbo woman from Imo state which is what gave him the courage to pull off that kind of feat. I remember in 2021 buhari was planning to hand over power to one nuisance from yobe state in house of reps then instead of allowing power to devolve to southern Nigeria. aketi stood up in the meeting and told the north face to face he will invoke 1900 agreement and north and south will go separate ways, fear catch all man. He later formed amotekun that gave Fulani herdsmen a chase from western Nigeria and nobody had ever dared Fulani boldly like that. If not for what he did buhari and co would have pushed tinubu out of APC before the 2023 elections
lol
Is it Congo women that your 5 governors married that they couldn't create something like Amotekun? cheesy
You just like hiding under Yoruba successes.
All good because Igbos are Yorubas junior brothers.

'where are the cows ' crew are now celebrating what they never supported. thanks to the wise yorubas not the ones who value politics over their peoples lives.

ESN walked so that AMOTEKUN could fly
ESN started it and others followed

I remember when ESN first started
They were heavily ridiculed and critizied
Now every state is following their model.

Akeredolu wife is from imo state
You can see how she inspired Akeredolu to create Amotekun for Yorubas the same way igbos created ESN

Betty Akeredolu low-key influenced a lot of Akeredolu decision in govt.

Igbos are trend setters
Tho they lack the cohesion and are easily targeted with Federal might.
They are truly 4 steps ahead into the future

ESN might have been politically destroyed but there imprint on AMOTEKUN will ever live long. God bless AMOTEKUN!!!
ESN has been in existence since 2017
When Nnamdi kalu was preaching about regional security outfits.
Only Nnamdi was hammering for regional outfits to stop Fulani herdsmen.

It took until 2022 that eastern governors started meeting to discuss about this.

ESN has been existing since 2017
They weren't Official like Amotekun that got full state support and funding and was established in 2022. That same 2022 saw the creation of Amotekun.

Akeredolu saw what Nnamdi was doing.
He liked the idea and decided to create one for the yorubas

That is why I said Igbos have the Fore sight
But lack the unity and cohesion to carry it

They decided to make it Official late Dec 2022
Doesn't mean they didn't exist before then
They existed but came out officially Dec 2022
They have been in operation way back to 2017
How do you expect a Terrorist like kanu to organise Security outlet that will be a welcome for the UN? Unsteady of you to allow legal official poeple to represent you but you allow a branded Terrorist body to represent you. You are now here claiming " Na we first start am"

Thank God the region is recognized for the great security job Weldon, unlike some places in Nigeria known for banditry, terrorism and sharialism 😂

lol A state actor seeing what a non state actor was doing ... it's actually chest beater , people that suffer from inferior complexity and delusion of grandeur that want to insert themselves into the success stories of others .


Oh see their economy booming, we are responsible for it,oh see their security outfits , we are responsible for it wheareas theirs are failures .

ESN was critized because it was established by non state actors that were probalbly proscribed as a terrorist organisation then , though Amotekun was also critized but it's by some unscrupulous elements from the north .

So Amotekun that was official in Jan 2020 didn't have background , it's just boom , Amotekun organisation .. get your acts together and some stop trying to belittle the achievements of others .

They are not original, they lack wisdom to create anything, either they copy from you or they envy you. They created monsters that today they're running away from their region.
They're not stopping there, they are also trying to sponsor a bill to claim land that doesn't belongs to them.
You know that they lack originality and astute thinking.
Emotion obtilterates the little wisdom given to them by the creator which is why it's always channeled towards crime.

The more they hate us the more God elevates us globally over and above them.

Those you refer to are fighting for their sovereignty and you are fighting for security, there are two different things altogether. Whatever you achieve is to you and whatever they tend to achieve is to them

Kudos to them. There were some spots under some bridges that hoodlums were trying to take over by extorting innocent passersby. Next, I saw Amotekun and their vehicle .. Also areas that used to be safe haven for kidnappers are now terror free.

Amazing people grin

Buhari used infiltrators to useless ESN.
All because of the Buharis lust for cheap cash from crude oil from the Niger delta region.

Lest we forget, kudos to Late Arakunrin Aketi Akeredolu for standing his ground against the disapproval of creation of amotekun by the evil Bubari government. May his soul rest in peace

Factcheck0001:
this further solidify the claim that we ain't d same n we don't face issues the same way

I remember when the Fulani menace came we used our head n created amotekun that today is recognised by UN but they went and create a terror group that is making them run away from their region till date.


This further solidify the claim that the pen is mightier than the sword

The U.N and it's alterior motives. Of all the problems in Africa, America, Middle East, etc it's the Amotekun that's paramount to these evil people standing as U N or whatever they call themselves.

We have nothing in common with the northern part of Nigeria . But let’s continue to deceive ourselves.
