If Boko Haram can get external support, any group that decided to go will get support from within and outside. So we must address the issue now.”

“I will continue to fight for Nigeria’s unity until I die. But this fight is not to make my children and my race second class citizens.

MY TAKE ON OPERATION AMOTEKUN:

Any discerning individual should have realised that happenings across the country recently most especially insecurity, nepotism in political appointments most especially lopsided security which has been intentionally concentrated into the northern region will eventually brings no good to the country.

Like a crescendo tension and fear builds up in the minds of many who can see the telltale signs of impending danger to all. Coupled with brazen unabated killings by BH, bandits, Fulani militias across the country and most especially in the middle belt. Many are of the opinion there's an agenda of ethnic cleansing by Fulanis and that the FG aren't helping matters with the failure to protect Nigerians and seemingly non prosecution of these bloodthirsty groups.
The reality is that one doesn't have to be a prophet to know that if these security challenges aren't faced head-on it won't be long before criminals elements start going from house to house killing and abducting people as it has become obvious the country security architecture is overstretched and compromised as some alleged.

So Operaion Amotekun is a child of necessity whose birth is a near perfect timing to stop incursion of these bloodthirsty groups into southern Nigeria. It's a kinda checkmate if Yorubas and other southerners are to sleep with their eyes closed cos it's no secret that 'cells' of these bloodthirsty marauders are very much in the south.

Real Omoluabis considers life and security of their people first before politics and I congratulate the SW governors for setting aside political differences to birth this laudable move. But they and the DAWN commission should be careful not to lose the reins of Amotekun to those who want to be politically correct because of selfish ambition as such individuals will want to whittle down the strength and functionality of these initiative in order to please some feudal lords at the detriment of Yorubas and entire south.
The governors should likewise be cautious of their dealings and discussions with the FG cos 'the devil is in the details' in order to avoid this initiative being sabotaged to suit Fulani interests and agenda.

I am also very happy for the resounding support from the Yoruba nation at home and in diaspora. It is a positive signs we have come to realise the need for UNITY and knows who our enemies are. And I hope southern Nigeria comes together as it is the ONLY WAY to have a country of our dreams IF we all desire to stay together as a country.

And those opposing this regional initiative should be rest assured Yorubas aren't unreasonable and neither will Amotekun be a tool for oppressing fulani herders as being claimed by Fulani leaders.
All we want is security of our people and only criminals elements amongst them need to fear Amotekun.

ONLY CRIMINALS AND THIEVES COMPLAINS OF THE STRENGTH AND HEIGHT OF THEIR NEIGHBOURS' GATE.

If I was in the military, I will resign and go look for something else to do.

I can't be taking orders from a Commander-In-Chief who also happens to be the Commander-In-Chief of the various terrorist groups in Nigeria including Miyetti Allah.

Imagine seeing your friends and colleagues wasted on the battlefield against Boko Haram and then going home to see the same Boko boys being released by your President.

This is so fcked up.

According to Dogara who was the Chairman of the meeting,” [b] We are confronted with a crisis that is unparalleled in our history. The death spiral appears unstoppable. Increasingly, it is becoming harder and harder to distinguish us from our enemies.

“There was no shortage of early warning signs and as a matter of fact, our philosophers such as the late Sa’adu Zungur of blessed memory had warned that this dystopian era was fast approaching but we ignored all. We are now paying for our collective negligence”.

He said the North is now in the.grip of what Soren Kierkegaard called “Sickness unto death” the numbing of the soul by despair that leads to moral and physical debasement. It has become a society that is driven at its very core by death instinct. The instinct to annihilate and destroy rather than nurture and create.”

He further observed that our economic debris has become too conspicuous to be ignored, adding that, “As it is, we are now trapped in a prison of mirrors, where revealed lies are answered with new lies. With all these, it is like our slow-motion walk to self Apocalypse is assured [/b]

Pompeo stated, “We know that these issues are hard. We know that they’re complicated. But I strongly encourage the Nigerian government to do more to protect its civilians, including religious communities and the humanitarian organisations, seeking to assist them.

Nwoha said, “The level of insecurity in the country has reached an unacceptable crescendo that declaring a state of emergency on it appears not only necessary but also pressing.

“I think at this point displaying names of Christians who have participated in terrorism will not help justify the case of the NSCIA because Nigerians already know that they are being killed by Boko Haram, Fulani militiamen, ISWAP, bandits, kidnappers and their likes. Nigerians know also their religion and the angle they come from. We cannot deny the fact that not all Muslims are terrorists but all terrorists are Muslims.”

GenBuhari:
Abacha never looted.

America is a thief who is giving us conditions for return of phantom audio "Abacha Loot"They keep disturbing us with endless anti- Abacha propaganda, to distract us from the over $1trn of our money illegally acquired by them and other white supremacist western nation allies.

Maxymilliano:
Just look at the manner the United States is addressing the giant of Africa like we are some wayward college kids

GenBuhari:
Imagine! How can a thief be giving conditions to owner before returning owners property?

I always tell any mummified zombie who cares to listen that the below is the true meaning of patroitism;

Racoon:
"People who had constructed Buhari as an unerring, irreproachable demigod who is worthy only of worship and unquestioned admiration have started to call him insensitive and clueless...

There suddenly seems to be an epiphany in the region that Buhari is an inept, uncaring fraud who scammed the people into attributing to him qualities he never possessed & would never possess in a million lifetimes.."
Sarrki salvation comes to mind.

sassysure:
Great if this is true.

Others should set up theirs.
Middle belt especially

viyon02:
Bravo! bravo!!, bravo!!!, with the creation of Amotekun, it is crystal clear that every region need to security cautious: Yoruba has taken the lead others can follow.

KingOfThisnDat:
STFU you bloody slowpoke! What has the South benefitted from onnoghen’s thievery and misbehavior in office?

alezzy13:
@bolded, that will be very unlikely. Mainly because 1.they are relatively far fewer in number, and 2.a number of such educated youth are usually offspring of the ruling class and so benefit from the status quo.
