How can Amotekun with Pump-action/Dane gun engage the fourth most dangerous terror group in the world that has sophisticated weapons like AK-47?
The leader of the
Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, has advised the Western Nigeria
Security Network, codenamed Amotekun, to use sophisticated weapons in their
battle against killer Fulani herdsmen.
Kanu said this on
Friday while reacting to Governor of Bauchi, Bala Mohammed's comments that
herdsmen carry AK-47 against cattle rustlers for self-defence.
Mohammed had said,
"Because the Fulani man is practising the tradition of pastoralism, he has
been exposed to the vagaries of the forest, cattle rustlers who carry guns,
kill him and take away his commonwealth, which is the cows.
"He has no option
than to carry AK47 because the society and the government are not protecting
him, what is his fault; it's the fault of the government and the people. You
don't criminalise all of them, because, in every tribe, there are
criminals."
Kanu, on his official
Twitter handle, wrote, "Amotekun has been politicised. What a shame! How
can Amotekun with Pump-action/Dane gun engage the fourth most dangerous terror
group in the world that has sophisticated weapons like AK-47?
"It's time for an
outfit with a pedigree like Odua People's Congress to take over."
