On Tuesday the Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Matami declared the newly established community police, Amotekun, created by South West Governors illegal.
Following the statement, former Minister of Aviation and legal Practioner, Femi Fani-Kayode reacted to it as he said he is not surprised Malami declared Amotekun illegal.
He said, “Not surprised that AG said Operation Amotekun is illegal.Anybody that believes that a Govt. whose primary interest is to protect the interest & further the fortunes of the Fulani &their herdsmen would want the sons of Oduduwa to defend themselves against mass murder is naive.”
Whether the FG likes it or not we shall defend ourselves against the barbarity of the Fulani herdsmen & any other terrorist org.. I urge the Governors of the SW to stand firm in their resolve to defend and protect our people. We can no longer allow our people to be butchered.”
Hisbah Police in NW is ok. Civilian Joint Task Force in NW is ok. Civilian Joint Task Force in NE is ok. Meanwhile IPOB in SE are terrorists and Amotekun in SW is illegal! One day Nigerians will get tired of this bullshit, get sense & free themselves from this bondage.”
What the FG has done by claiming that Amotekun is illegal is to strengthen the hands of the more extreeme and forceful elements and the more radical nationalist forces in the SW who question the notion that the unity of Nigeria is sacrosanct. I welcome that.”
