Afenifere To South West Governors:Dont Be Intimidated By FG’s Declaring Operation Amotekun Illegal

The Pan-Yoruba socio-political organisation, Afenifere has told the South West governors not to be intimidated by the declaration of the federal government through the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister for Justice, Abubakar Malami that Operation Amotekun is an illegal security outfit.

The Afenifere leader said “Operation Amotekun is a welcome development, but they were being asked not to do it. The Governor of Ondo State, Rotimi Akeredolu, insisted that they would do it.

Pa Fasoranti added that “I think he is talking for somebody. Silence means consent, he is talking the mind of the presidency, that is what they want. It confirms the suspicion that they are trying to protect some interests here in the South-West. I agree with that too, so that they can go on and do what they like with impunity. It is unfortunate.

“It is very bad to leave our people helpless, defenceless and without any succour; without any protection.
