Nice one.

Amotekuns, to me look like they are glorified hunters/Vigilante though!



If you can prove me wrong, mention but if not better drink water and look away

.

Okay.

Those criminals Seyi Makinde is talking about is the same Park manager boys tormenting Oyo state.

Those ill-mannered men of his

Sounds funny. Is this relegating NSCDC and NPF? Most of these Amotekun guys sre illiterates. I don't know how much of training they receive to use these equipments. Let them not just be driving around and be picking people indiscriminately.

I will love that they invest more in training the Amotekun officers and let their operations be top notch so people can trust them and criminals fear them enough.

Fulani terrorists dey disguise. If they catch you in the bush no body will tell your tale.

Nice one

Insecurity everywhere

State policing is taking shape ; we're supposed to be a federation.

How sure are we that the amotekuns are not criminals themselves .....we still what ended opc and others, internal deceit

Ineffective as fvck

Is it by vehicles

God bless Govvy!
I still don’t know why this peanut brained regime can’t initiate the creation of state police. The NPF is just a National gateman service for the rich. I was home in December and was with a friend who got an officer following him about like a hopeless zombie. That’s what the NPF is reduced to. I hope the other dumpfok southern governors follow suit. Sanwo Olu is doing nothing regarding security in Lagos. All the officers in Lagos are going only concerned about vehicle tint permit and yahoo boys

hahahah very funny if you are not a mumu man, just few days ago a deadly terrorist attack happened in Abuja to Kaduna railway and a governor decided to buy more patrol vehicles for easy mobility of security personnels especially in a state like Oyo with massive landmass and you dey mumu yourself with dry joke. Ekpa

What's the point of buying operational vehicles for Amotekun when Seyi Makinde won't allow anybody arrest Auxiliary thugs causing trouble

He expects the unserviceable vehicles to train them. Our politicians are the lowest on the face of the earth.
