Nigerians have united in the call for the arrest of former Governor of Ogun State, Ibikunle Amosun, who surrendered 1,000 AK47 and 4 million bullets he acquired before the 2019 election.

Recall that it was reported that Amosun had on May 28, a day before he was billed to complete his eight years as governor, called the state police commissioner, Bashir Makama, to confess that he had a cache of arms he was willing to surrender to the police. He claimed he procured the arms and ammunition to check the widespread insecurity in his state of 3,751,140 residents, according to the 2006 census. According to him, he decided to keep them at the Government House Armoury to ensure they were not allocated indiscriminately by security agencies.

The manner with which Mr Amosun turned in the arms has alarmed security officials, who saw the affair as damaging to national security. Nigerians who reacted to the surrendered 1,000 AK47 and 4 million bullets report, took to social media to call for the arrest of Senator Ibikunle Amosun.

lalasticlala, seun, mynd44

4 million bullets?... Na wu count am?
It might av probably been a donation to d police force. Bt irrespective of dat, I fink a governor Sudnt be directly involved in d purchase of arms

ibikunle amosun should be arrested then. no immunity again. he's not above the law

Alot of wrong people in this country.

The money used to purchase those weapons can go a long way feeding thousands.

He should be picked up for questioning.


Atiku its about time U come and save us abeg.

and someone here is quoting me that
our leader is not the problem of this country...

Put your business on Google page1
and youtube page 1 chat up

Even the chief of army staff would not have that much armory...

So dem neva arrest am sef......if na poor man him for don dey kiri kiri by since

Na online who na take dey protest .. why don’t u go to the street and protest

The law is only for the weak and ordinary citizen.

This matter must be adequately looked into and the right punishments must be metted to all the people involved.

That is the Nigeria we voted for.
No more BS as usual.

now you know those funding herdsmen, na politicians

It was for Fulani Herdsmen

OK. we don hear

d

May God help us for this country ooo

Why not donate them to our own OPC and Agbekoya to tackle Herdsmen menace are we even sure he does'nt have access to even more


.

Him for dash me just 1 AK47 and 50 bullets. But how did he manage to smuggle the guns and ammunition's into Nigeria without been caught. Hmm

Na Today?

He's still a partial APC member, so who will arrest him?

Good moves

It is well.

Nigeria is plunging into more and more anarchy

Imagine the stokepile of Arms with people like Hell-Rufai or GanDollar

Well I understand that he may want to protect himself but that much arms like his some kind of man of honour nawa oh

That is the problem with we the Nigerian people. He surrendered the weapons to the Nigerian police and we are shouting 'arrest Amosu'. Now tell me how other politicians with such weapons would surrender theirs if Amosu is arrested and prosecuted?

By the way we haven't ask if he purchased the guns legally for the state benefit or not.

I think he should be applauded and given an award for the 'kind gesture'. Do we really know how much an Ak47 costs? Plus the cost of the 4million bullets. That's what Amosu 'gave' the Nigerian police.

Since we have FAILED to tackle corruption or retrieve our stolen monies from these politicians, I think its better we start encouraging the corrupt politicians to start investing their 'ill gotten' money in Nigeria.

Plea bargain is the way forward for us. Otherwise, they will continue to stockpile these billions of dollars in foreign banks at the detriment of the Nigerian economy and its infrastructure.

Let us be wise!!! If Amosu had opted to bury the weapons, would we have known? I remember how the EFCC seized the investments (Cosmo FM and others) of one ex governor of Enugu state (chimaroke nnamani)

I
