Anyways moving forward, propose the best line of action for Tinubu and Obasanjo if you were him and the Yoruba land as a whole if you were like the leader and the ralling point

My proposal and my opinion is simple, Tinubu keep out and let Governors and Lawyers get it done, Tinubu should keep his doors open for all negotiation and should limit his public appearances

I understand your concern but this is politics, ti owo eni oba te eku ida aki bere iku to pa baba eni...

If today Tinubu and Obasanjo Brings out a megaphone to adress people and Obasanjo picks up his letter.. and they foolishly play into the hands of the enermies.. and start issuing reckless statements, telling Fulani that they would swim in blood like baboons and dogs, and they say that Amotekun has come to stay and all Fulani are in troble

What exactly would it change? to me it changes nothing they both have no executive powers

and should any National issue crop up like who becomes Vice or President Northerners wont negotiate with Afenifere, or OPC or Amotekun, and with Obasanj and Tinubu making reckless statements they wont negotiate with them, yet North has 19 states, more voting population and can recklessly block any progress in Southwest with other southerners hapilly mocking us

This is the time for Yorubas to Think and see the bigger picture, its also time for Ibos to produce a trusted leader that can negotiate for them if not hmmn its going to be another 8 years of agony

Did Tinubu stop the Amotekun from running? or didnt his state donate their dues...

Just honestly picture what will Happen with A SouthEast President, North East Vice president (or vice versa) , SouthSouth Senate President and North Central Speaker.. Army chief NorthWest, Police chief South East, Customs NorthEast, for 8 years, imagine what would happen to Yoruba Land, for 8 fvcking good years.. all because we play all of our cards out. let Obasanjo and Tinubu stay out of this and represent us at the National level, it would be terrible if they all join in regional affiars very tragic

People seeking to push out Tinubus and Obasanjos veiws are mostly other tribe seriously hoping to naked them and build up a case against them so we can have no rep at nationa discuss

think bro, without presidential powers, if we fail in 2023, many people would pouce on Yorubas and the so called Amotekun would be victimised by the next fulani president especially if we dont have a vice president or a top legislative head

Do you honestly think if we have any chance at devolution of power without a Yoruba President?

oh, that was a different game then, Buhari was reckless in making unguarded statements due to emotions running wild, and when Tinubu's camp took over his affiars regarding campaign they cautioned him on how to manage his media appearance and that was what made him become the new Saint Buhari that everyone voted for in 2023

a quick browse through Facebook comments on Sahara Reporters showed Tinubu's popularity among Northerners suge with his silence, they now call him Baba Buhari, to them they see a little sign of hope in him, but truly behind the closet Tinubu was the masterminder of DAWN (Development Agenda of Western Nigeria) commision that brought about regional integration and WSN (amotekun) Lagos is also one of the biggest spender and financer of the project..

So unlike Some regions that wears their feelings on their collar and make reckless statements, people like Tinubu and Obasanjo are silently making moves behind close doors

if we gain Amotekun and loose out of 2023 wont the Amotekun be disbanded by the next fulani president in case it was El Rufai

solmusdesigns:
If we mistakenly mix politics with Emotion then we are heading for a major sidelining in 2023, we must keep our emotions and use our actions to show what we mean

solmusdesigns:
bro at no point did Buhari make any statement, it was Danbazua minister of Interior then that went to Ile Ife and made statements, nothing was credited to Buhari or his spokesperson (Garba and Femi)

I can bet you Buhari as a President would never speak on this but rather use his proxies so that people can say it is one imaginary cabals

LegendHero:
Tinubu is behaving like Pa Akintola of those days. Normally people like him will be seen as a sellout by conservatives, but I am of the opinion that we need someone like Tinubu in this current political scene of Nigeria.

Osinbajo do not need to say anything coz he is the Vice President. He is the Vice President of all Nigerians and he shouldn’t take sides in the media. These guys can do all this in the background and them coming to the media to give pronunciation about Amotekun might not sound logical.

My own grievances is directed at Oyetola, Sanwoolu, and Abiodun. They should lend their voices to this in the open and stop behaving like sissies.

Its not about compromising, its about having representative on both sides of the table for proper negotiation.. this is how to play National Politics, Obasanjo is doing the same

Atleast Osun, Ogun and Lagos contributed their fair share for vehicle purchase and recruitment, and since Makinde and Fayemi hope to politicalise it they still havent stopped their support in terms of pledge salaries and funding

LegendHero:
I understand your concern and you’re right to some extent. However, I am of the opinion that Tinubu supported this and there is no proof to say the contrary.

You are right about Afenifere and Tinubu enemies hijacking the network, but still I think that shouldn’t make any difference coz they are all Yoruba first!

Afenifere leader initially condemned Amotekun by saying they are not what we needed, he opined that state police would have been the best thing. They later fall into line when they see that majority of the Yorubas supported the network and I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t have condemned it a bit if they had been the pioneer of it.

Tinubu currently still hold some influence in the SW and the governors loyal to him wouldn’t have subscribed to Amotekun if he was against it. Remember this planning was initiated since last year and DAWN commission were the one that did the planning while all the SW governors supported with the necessary funding.

Although no one dare compare Awolowo to Tinubu coz Awo is far above Tinubu league. However without Tinubu currently, the Yorubas wouldn’t have had a bargaining power in politics at the center.

This is the problem of most Igbo youth. They find it difficult to separate region, politics and ethnicity. Yoruba decision on Amotekun and Fulani stand is purely ethnic and not of political party or religion.

GodSaklek:
Sad, am not a Christian nor a Muslim, everyone has right to worship whatever they want but killing people or kidnapping because of religion is totally out of it,even in Saudi Arabia where this madness emanated from doesn't engaged themselves is criminal activities, Saudi Arabia and other Islamic peaceful countries need to make a bold step to rectified the errors in the book and enlighten people, this is a modern era, we shouldn't follow the idea of past people whos are not advanced than us, If we continue this way,we will be a backward people, especially in Africa we religions has destroyed our minds,human rights in Nigeria has been violeted,government is doing nothing to curb this madness..


A country where the government that we voted for are using the power we gave them to deprive us of our right,government can't protect its citizens,when the masses makes a move to protect themselves,they announced it as illegal..

Amotekun will stay..

Stdaviding:
this man will never talk whenever he’s in the country, small abroad like this, him mouth go lose

Osagyefo98:
You should be more concerned with vehicles procured for amotekun and the resources wasted on this failed mission

BuhariAdvocate:
Mr president must build a national hospital and schools for the fulani. Fulani has really suffered in Nigeria. This country is belong to all of us.

Osagyefo98:
Challenged who?

Challenged me on illegality or what?

Amotekun is an illegal security outfit.

Any Igbos supporting illegal outfit should also be arrested alongside Amotekun volunteers for heating up the polity of this nation.


Meanwhile, are you the man. Named Igbos?


Because many of us are just hearing this lame logic today.

BuhariAdvocate:
Mr president should terminate her appointment. Since her spirit couldn't work with other Nigerians except her family member. Of course she can build a company and employ her family member.
When the president said the elites are the great enemy of society some people argue with the president.

Osagyefo98:
SW are been mischievous and smart by quarter


If you guys need regional security watch then your senators and representatives should rally others for constitutional review to make inputs and set Amotekun working.


Crying hahahaha
Amotekun ain't tears bra

This is a time to know those who really support restructuring. You guys should stop crying as if anybody is intimidating you guys. Malami is only doing his work and the constitution is what he stands on....


Review the same constitution and have Amotekun functioning in full force.

I guess the intelligent ones are still sleeping. Only the thick-headed and chest beaters are online.

So it's not surprising that those online are not making any sense, neither contributing or countering the post with intelligent submission(s).

Do not expect a response from me if you fall under the category of the aforementioned folks, because I cannot stoop to your level.

FriendNG:
Hisbah is not a regional force. It's independent of each state. There names are different (Kano state Hisbah board, Jigawa State Hisbah etc). Also a Hisbah vigilante from Kano have zero powers in Jigawa state.
