Not Supporting Amotekun Is A Mistake – Femi Fani-Kayode

Femi FaniEx Aviation Minister, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode has begged the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government to not contemplate on outlawing the newly launched South-West security outfit, Amotekun because it was established to protect the lives and property of the people.

He revealed this in his Abuja residence at a media parley with journalists.

According to him, no threat from FG will stop the people from embracing the fresh security outfit.

He added that not supporting it is a mistake from anyone concerned.

His words, “Anybody that feels that he doesn’t have to support the people of the South West is making a mistake. And anybody that believes that we can be in any way intimidated by stepping down and saying we will not protect our people from those killing is mistaken.

“There is no going back and it is something we have firmly resolved about. We speak as one, we stand as one. We are solidly behind the governors. Every group in the South West is behind the governors. it is across party line.

“Whether you are (a member) of the Peoples Democratic, PDP or All Progressives Congress, APC, it doesn’t matter. The fact remains that those of us that claim to be the leaders in the South West have taken a decision. We will protect our people no matter what it takes, no matter what it cost,”

“That is just an opinion by the federal government, by the attorney general. He is a man like you and I. He is entitled to his own opinion. I have been in government for many years and I know that government officials often say things that are often meaningless; that have no substance or basis.

“So our opinion is different. In any case, whatever he says, whatever the court says, we have the right to self-defence. People are being slaughtered. The leader of Afenifere’s daughter was slaughtered, Baba Olu Falae’s farm raided, he was kidnapped and beaten like a dog, he was insulted.

“Thousands of our people are being slaughtered in the South West and somebody will come and tell us that his interpretation of the constitution is that we don’t have the right to self-defence”.
