Nigerian Govt Approved AK47 For Katsina Outfit, Ondo Will Buy For Amotekun – Akeredolu

Ondo Governor Rotimi Akeredolu has said he will buy arms for Amotekun Corps. He lashed out at the FG for denying the Western Nigeria Security Network (Amotekun Corps) the right to carry assault rifles despite terror attacks, while allowing the Katsina security outfit to bear and carry arms. According to him, the country cannot have two systems.

 
Reacting in a statement on Thursday  to the video showing Katsina security outfit bearing arms, the governor noted that denying Amotekun the rights to legitimately bear arms is a repudiation of the basis of true federalism which we have been clamoring for.
 
“That Katsina was able to arm its state security force, with the display of AK47 means we are pursuing one country, two systems solution to the national question. “If the Katsina situation conferring advantages on some, in the face of commonly faced existential threats, it means that our unitary policing system, which has failed, is a deliberate method of subjugation which must be challenged.”
 
The governor said Nigeria’s independence agreement was based on a democratic arrangement to have a federal state and devolved internal security mechanics. We must go back to that agreement. He added that denying Amotekun the right to bear arms exposes the Southwest to life-threatening marauders and organized crime.
 
“It is also a deliberate destruction of our agricultural sector. It is an existential threat. We want to reiterate, that what is sauce for the goose, is sauce for the gander.” The statement announced that the Ondo government, under the doctrine of necessity, “have decided to fulfil its legal, constitutional and moral duty to the citizens of the State, by acquiring arms to protect them”. “This is more so, given that the bandits have an unchecked access to sophisticated weapons. The State government cannot look on while its citizens are being terrorized and murdered with impunity. We will defend our people.”
