The Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, said the U-turn made by legal icon, Femi Falana, justified federal government’s stance that the establishment of the operation of “Amotekun” was illegal.

A statement issued on Thursday by Mr Malami’s Special Adviser on Media and Public Relations, Umar Gwandu, reiterated that Nigeria’s constitution does not accommodate formation of regional security architecture.

“By asking state governments of the South Western Nigeria to “proceed to enact the necessary laws”, in justifying the legality of the establishment and operation of Amotekun, Falana is reaffirming federal government’s stance that the establishment of the operation currently is illegal. “The bottom line is that the current Nigerian constitution does not accommodate formation of regional security architecture. This is a fact which is undisputable and undeniable,’’ Mr Gwandu said.

Let all the South Wester states get their own Amotekun. Case closed

Nigeria can't be Great Again..... I swear!

By the time state house of assemblies pass the required laws,AGF will sing another music

So is Hisbah and Sharia

To protect my life and that of my people is illegal? You need urgent medical attention.

who expected to hear something different

Everything is set for Amotekun

Jamboree journalists did you guy interviewed him this evening or you're repeating what he said days go just to caused confusion?

Anything done by Osinbajo when Buhari isn't around is usually taken with a pinch of salt tho

This man has a problem. All the outfits in the north are not illegal abi? Sharia police is not illegal, hisbah is not illegal? Smh

Disband it na let's see. Useless man

Fake report!!

I’m really really happing for all this things happening right now cos it’s really showing us that the Northerners don’t want the Yourba’s to protect their own ...Shameful!!!!!!!!!!!!

Which one we go believe na

iykimo dondekojo

iykimo Haba, after Star Boy ProfOsinbajo has brokered peace?

To me,the best reply the government should give to this Amotekun issue should just be to restructure the Nigerian Police. They are not protecting us enough. It’s not just about recruiting 15 thousand policemen every tenure in the name of creating employment opportunities.

Malami is speaking for Miyetti Allah.

That one will just die

Ok. We shall see who will laugh with other part of the head. AGF without sense
