An elder statesman of the Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, in Bauchi state, Sadiq Ibrahim Ahmed, has expressed doubt over the successful operation of the Western Nigeria Security Network (WNSN) operation Amotekun.<\/p>\n
He said the Nigerian constitution already made provision for a regular security with the establishment of the Police saying a regional security outfit like \u2018Amotekun\u2019 has no constitutional backing.<\/p>\n
The Elder statesman who spoke with our correspondent in a telephone interview on Saturday also called for the restructuring of the security architecture in the country.<\/p>\n
In his words \u201d Amotekun will not last because it is indigenous, regionalized and lacks constitutional backing, whereas Nigeria is a country governed by the constitution. The constitution had already made provision for regular security with the establishment of the Nigeria Police Force, a regional security outfit like Amotekun is just a breach of the constitution\u201d that is why it will not last . It will only bring problem and conflict\u201d<\/p>\n
He alleged that there is a secret motive behind the establishment of Amotekun which is to cleanse the Fulani tribe in the southwest.<\/p>\n
\u201dThere is a motive behind the establishment which is to cleanse our tribe from the south, that\u2019s is the agenda for its establishment. It is the objective of the government to provide security, any parallel security outfit is unacceptable. Am very sure Amotekun will not be recognized by law and it will never be legalized\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
