This is the first time I am seeing the Southwest agree on something -(the need to protect their people). The North is USUALLY in agreement and speaks with one voice on ANY matter that affects their people! For example, a PDP Governor Bala Muhammed set aside politics and quickly embraced the RUGA/Livestock initiative of APC led government. Similar cases abound. For the North, differences in political parties do not affect their resolve to agree on any thing from any government in power, so long their people will benefit. The other parts of Nigeria has that great lesson to learn from the North. LET THE SOUTHERNERS BUY, BORROW, BEG FOR OR STEAL SOME COMMON SENSE FROM OUR FRIENDS IN THE NORTH! Kudos to the obviously and incontrovertibly Learned Femi Falana who always educate us because he takes his time to read his law books. He is an indictment to many "Learned Novices" in our land
I see where this is going, its time we Southerners unite like the Northerners, this is not the fight of Yorubas alone, all Southern Nigerian people must as a matter of urgency come together now, before its too late, lets have one voice...or else we are doomed..
All those NORTHERNERS leaders in the SOUTH must be removed to allowing us to look after own land. Untill the constitution is change we are not going to have equal justice in the SOUTH. The NORTHERNERS are determined to ensure that they enslaved us. Our GOVERNORS must do the right thing. One law for the NORTHERNERS and another for the SOUTHERNERS this government is an evil we should stand for ourselves. Its clear they have a big plan to take our land. Can't our Governors now understand what the FULANIS want. Let's go away . L
Stop being sentimental plz, that's not a rude interruption ,he's the Host & moderator of the program. Besides this is a private & commercial TV station where commercial break re required in a bid to honor the agreement of their sponsors . I don't see it as disrespectful but one of the ethics of journalism.
The way this country is going e be like say everybody go carry gun defend himself las las. This one wey dem no want amotekun, amodefend myself na the way now.
I never gets tired of listening to Daddy Femi Falana San! You are indeed a blessing to US and God Almighty, will continue to PROTECT YOU FOR US THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD, AMEN!!!
Good moves, God bless you South West Governors. Let others follow suit. I can't understand why means employed to defend precious lives can be declared illegal.
May you live long SAN Femi Falana, you just nailed it really hard. The most important and simple part of this program is where you said if an individual citizens can ask for a license of gun to secure himself why the regional government will be a problem to secure it people. Wow wow wow. Once again May you live long Sir
The way Ihedioha was removed isn't proper but you saying APC has no business in eastern Nigeria is a useless word, but PDP can rule in South West and Northern part of the country abi, people will just come here and talk rubbish...
I love it when Nigerians talk intelligently. Very buoyant discussion here by our able leaders. On the other hand, has anybody heard the AGF talk before? You would wonder...
Good initiative. The Nigeria police are not strong enough to police the federal republic of Nigeria their number is small compared to Nigeria's population. They are not available for us when we need them so therefore they need help. I don't see anything bad in this, anyone opposing this motion is ILLEGAL!!
Prophet and man of the people. SAN femi falana. May Almighty olodumare continue to bless you ur family and all what u aspire to do everyday of your life sir...
Amotekun is a security initiative that our government must applaud! Why would the central government continue to render powerless the authority and responsibilities of States government? The honourable thing Malami would have done is praised the governor's for utilizing the security votes they receive monthly. Has Malami forgotten that security is everyone's responsibility and not just federal government? Besides, Amotekun, would create job opportunities for young people of the region. According to me, Nigerian government should be thinking of embracing the initiative as an opportunity to boost their scorecard by even including it in the next budget.
As a Federal run institutions and as elected Governors, also as chief security officials of their States, the State Governors are within and have the right, the jurisdiction to secure and provide protection for their the Constituents i.e. People and Property in accordance to Security allocations. Amotekun (South West Regional Security 'Policing') Outfit complimentary to the Police force of Nigeria reiterates Lead Counsel Femi Falana SAN. Policing is not in the Exclusive lists. Collaboration with the Police to defend the People of region of each States, NG. Section 33 under 1999 Constitution as Amended stipulates Federal & State to adopt reason measures to protect lives
BABA FALANA KUDOS 😘❤️💪 ODUDUWA REPUBLIC AND BIAFRA HERE YOU GO! ! EDUCATION IS BETTER THAN ILLITERATES 💯%. IF MALAMI DID NOT BUY HIS DEGREE HOW COME HE DOES NOT KNOW-HIS ROLE? AS ATONEY GENERAL OF THE FEDERATION? I NEED THAT ANSWER BEFORE THE END OF BUSINESS DAY TODAY .. lol 😂
It is quite unfortunate that the likes of Falana a learned SAN is there and a huge joke/mediocre in the person of whatever he is called would be occupying the position of the attorney general of federation. Nigeria is indeed a huge joke and an insult to judicial system. It will do you all a great deal if every region handle their own affairs and defend their territories. That is if only you all are aware of the plans they have up their sleeves.
I love the fact that president Buhari was elected as the president of Nigeria. Mr Buhari will unknowingly help each region in Nigeria to go their separate ways. Nigeria has never been one, it is not one and it can never be one. Nigeria is going to sound like a bomb to the world. I also love what the Edo people are doing, distancing themselves from Adam's oshiomole.
What are we debating? We have taken a decision on our security in the South West, through the leadership of out elected Governors. We stand by our decision on Amotekun. No going back.
The Nigeria Federal government knew the Amotekun will counter attack their agenda . They do not want the Jihadist movement to be hindered . Amotekun must stay . The fulani herdsmen must be helpless this time around .Thank u state governments for the initiative.
'Practice what you preach'. I can see Gov Wike's message spreading positively. Oshiomole is fighting a lost battle in Edo State. Edo is not Kogi or Osun state. Obaseki must end his reign of election rigging nd killing in Nigeria.
Let the south east governors adopt this system the crime rates in Nigeria can not be solve by only federal police alone .this is real teamwork for the west ,I support this ideal.
Police said they can not work in the forest that there works is not in the forest ...then the governors created Amotekun that will work in the forest where people are taken when they are kidnapped and yet fed govt go against it,then who is behind this kidnappers?your guess should be as good as mine
Security is paramount if Nigeria wants investors to come and grow the economy. Next is infrastructures like efficient electricity supply to everywhere in Nigeria 🇳🇬 and better education system with emphasis on skill development
Normally, i don't comment on this type issue. The people have been asking for restructure but the federal Government said no because of their selfish interest best known to them. Now, the people have started restructuring on their own systematically and many more states or region Will follow up, and you can never know the nature of theirs when the time comes. I am afraid! Please, advisers or what ever position you occupy in this administration. Please, advice the president to propose a bill and plea with the national assembly and senate giving them the reasons and possible consequences should there be no amendment of the constitution which will give the states Government some inevitable right in the affairs of their various states before it gets out of hand. I am advising Mr. President to do so because some politicians or citizens who are in the political parties or in support of any Government, always try to escape by saying Na d president be National Assembly or d Senate? But he has the right to push for it or even ask for referendum and even if he did'nt achieve it, but the entire citizens can now see that our president tried but the law makers said no or the majority of the citizens said no in the case of referendum. Can't you see that the people are in support of the initiative? Can't you see that Nigerians are running out of patience? It's left for us to continue with our old ways which is not paying or try to adjust significantly for it serves the country better. You have refused and the people are trying to do it systematically and legally. Hmmmmm Think about it, Governors, president, ministers and others in the same party having misunderstanding over the issues of security and others. It has a lot to tell. My advice! May God bless our president and the Governors giving them the wisdom to lead us. May God bless Nigeria. PEACE!
Thank God that the sleeping cat of Yoruba people has woke up to become Ekun, I can be proud to be a Yoruba at least for once, because Yoruba never agreed on anything before, in my opinion.
God bless governor Akereduro. Be strong and be courageous to defend your land. The northern is a cheat to our nation Nigeria. Protection of life and properties is an essential to life. God will judge this wicked group of people call the northerners.
Segun, you are so annoying. How can elected executive Governors and learned ones for that matter, be taking permission from semi illiterate Federal govt.? So nice hearing intelligent statements from Gov Akeredolu and Chief Falana. Yorubas are gradually setting themselves free from Tinibu nd Buhari grip.
@Jesus Christ Is God Can you please tell me what session of the constitution that established Civilian JTF in Bornu state, or the one in Zamfara state, Kano, Katsina? Which law permits Govs to pay money to identified bandits and kidnappers instead of arresting them? If Northern states can make sharia laws why cant Benie or any other state make anti open grazing laws? A government that refused to have an efficient Policing system should allow pple to defend themselves and stop tribalism. If UK was only for English pple, Buhari nd his family wont have it to run to all the time.
This man called hope Uzodinma is speaking English like Buhari Don't you think Okorocha will be better than this man so many people have described as a fraudster Imo is a very unfortunate state in Nigeria
Is by force to spoke English like those who own English as possession?... That's problems we have to treating on our lame brain in Nigeria, because our mentality very shabby.
Federal government should embrace a security network such as AMOKTEKUN and even introduce it all over the state... provide them a meaningful sophisticated weapons, legally binding and be in connection with the police all over the states in Nigeria. There will be peace and it will encourage investors to invest in Nigeria.
Amotekun is not illegal, its only illegal if the federal government security is effective, if not ITS STATE GOVERNMENT TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF PEOPLE AND PROPERTIES OF THE STATE. A federal government should support it if they are concern about people's security
Amotekun will always be the best solution and way forward to protect life and prosperity which I believe other regions will follow soon but should not be control under Federal Government otherwise they can easily put Fulani to be the head, and by then our aim and objective is fail
It is becoming more evident that whoever it is that is the president of Nigeria you can no longer achieve your Evil or selfish agenda on Nigerians. Nigerians a more aware of the happenings around them. No extremist agenda will thrive in our nation.
Seun, you and your other colleagues in channels ask questions most as if you guys are not..... You guys need to evaluate sensitive issue before inviting yours...
Governor chairman Akeredolu and co. Should consulted Important Justice powers, Justice department Honourable sir Falana and others that matters before creating WAR IN NIGERIA THANK YOU
Look at the way the AGF is being talked down on and disgraced even by people who don't know law just as if he didn't go to school. It is buhari whispering into the ears of Malami. This buhari man is very evil. May God get rid of him for us.
tHIS man called Malami is illiterate. If he is not, he's looking for trouble because he doesn't know the demands of his office. Why do these people talk first and then begin to think? How come they don't know the law?
Please, tell Mr President that this is not 1967 when the whole world fought one tribe. No, it is not. Now everyone is on their own. People are wiser now. No more lies. Even a young child on the street knows what is going on in the country.
Mind you English is not their language, it will be irrational and stupid to complain about their accent. If you are irritated by their accent, you may stop listening to them
The defend of one's personal life, especially through the use of physical force, which is permitted in certain cases as self-defense is an answer to a charge against violent crime committed by the Fulani herdsmen..... So my people self-defense is the ANSWER!...Well done Amotekun
Wide Wide West State Of Nigeria. If Amotekun community defence is deemed illegal by the govt but yet they have Hishba in the North, then maybe we have to resort to self help, meaning everyone ‘hose’ your waist with weapon and ammunition because it’s now very obvious that the North want to eliminate the Southerners.
This Guy called Seun in Chennel tv Why do you not allow Femi Falana to answer the questions you asked him? You always doing this when you see someone make good point you will interrupt him and said the network is not ok that's Capital lie, if the network is bad people listening to him, Will notice it from his voice that is not clear so stop lie and allow them to answer the question. We know who you are and you did the same thing to Buba Galadima when you invited him for an interview you didn't even allowed him to finish his point and you interrupted him. There's God that's all I got to tell you if you keep supporting evil the evil will meet you if it is not now be later. Stop calling red white bye.
Chairman governors forum S-West and Falan; you have contributed well. Enough of this Fulani troubles. If you refuse to stand and protect your people then you are cowards, but I know you are not.
Only criminals are afraid when the security are around. What is Malami afraid of and why? Are Miyetti Allah the perpetrators of crime? Why are they afraid?
Seun mentioned repeatedly that he interrupted Mr. Falana because of network connection to Ondo governor. Why the attacks on his person? Let's be reasonable, please.
If the presidency says Amotekun is illegal, what has he done about the thousands of citizens of Benue Plateau killed by the herdsmen as well as in Kogi Imo and etc. Mr president you neglected your responsibility as the chief security officer you should resign.
Amotekun has stopped the "silent unabated fulanisation" of the south dead in its track period! All this noises and Shakara from the FG is plain nonsense. Amotekun is 100% legal by her own merits. The governors have a duty to protect the lives and proprty of their people. They have done that, thank God.
Malami, and co.have failed in the security of Nigerians. Individuals get licenses to float security outfits, individuals also have security in their respective homes. Seun,even you, have the right to secure yourself and family, against marauders. Why are we jittery over very necessary issues. Please. Federal government, and Malami, should let the sleeping dog lie. They should look for a way of complimenting the efforts of these states, please. Police have not ,had not, and will not be able to police us effectively. Malami, please, look around you and face the facts, instead of your distrust, which will lead us to more disasters.
