The Inspector General of Police (IGP), Kayode Egbetokun, has banned the Western Nigeria Security Network (WNSN) known as Amotekun and Vigilante Corps from taking part in the November 16 gubernatorial poll in Ondo State.

The ban directive was contained in a statement on Sunday by the Force representative, Muyiwa Adejobi.

He said the IG ordered the deployment of officers from various specialized units, including the Special Intervention Squad, Police Mobile Force, Counter-Terrorism Unit, Special Protection Unit, Explosive Ordnance Disposal Unit, and K-9 Unit among others.

The police chief likewise ordered that aerial patrols be carried out with police helicopters, while gunboats would patrol the state’s waterways and riverine areas to guarantee security across all terrains.

As the Ondo State Governorship Election, slated for November 16, 2024, inches close, the Inspector-General of Police has unequivocally guaranteed the public of the Nigeria Police Force’s unwavering preparedness to guarantee a tranquil and orderly election process across all 18 Local Government Areas, 203 Wards, and 3,933 Polling Units in the state.

“The IGP has confirmed that comprehensive plans have been set in motion to guarantee a smooth election, including the strategic deployment of adequate personnel, resources, and state-of-the-art equipment.

“The deployment will see officers from various specialized units, including the Special Intervention Squad, Police Mobile Force, Counter-Terrorism Unit, Special Protection Unit, Explosive Ordinance Disposal Unit, K-9 Unit, Federal Investigation and Intelligence Response Team, and Federal Intelligence and Security Task Force working in concert with other security agencies. These agencies will adhere strictly to the guidelines of the Electoral Act, 2022, ensuring that all measures taken align with the principles of fairness, transparency, and order.

“In addition to ground personnel, aerial patrols will be conducted with police helicopters, while gunboats will patrol the state’s waterways and riverine areas to ensure security across all terrains. These comprehensive measures will serve as a deterrent to any attempt to disrupt the electoral process and will enhance the overall stability of the elections.”

The IGP additionally vowed to deal with political thugs or individuals intending to disrupt the elections.

As indicated in a statement, only the federal security agencies and other members of the Inter-Agency Consultative Committee on Election Security would be permitted to take part in the election.

“The IGP has also issued a stern warning to political thugs and any individuals or groups who may contemplate acts of violence or disruption before, during, or after the election: they will face the full force of the law. The message is clear, those who attempt to jeopardize the peace and security of the state will not go unpunished,” Adejobi stated.

No less than 17 political parties will take part in the November 16 gubernatorial election in Ondo State.

Amotekum terrorists.

Better

Amotekun terrorists should be shot at sight. They are a problem to peace. They've have been killing peaceful Yorubas.

They have constitutional backings and they work with the security operatives to prevent crimes and criminalities, unlike IPOB Terrorist that has been killing our Igbo people for years with the guise of freedom fighting.

That's why IPOB was named 7th most dangerous terrorist group in the Global Terrorist Index in year 2020 by Institute for Economic and Peace

Lol. Like Ebubeagu your eempty-brained SE leaders rushed to copy Yorubas and create only for the group to be disbanded for extrajudicial killing, extortion, human rights abuse, robbery Etal ages ago while Amotekun continues to wax stronger?

Shallow hatred and raw envy of the Yorubas will be the undoing of most of you in life because God cannot bless those hating and envying those who have done them no wrong.

The Federal High Court sitting in Abakaliki on Tuesday disbanded the South-East security outfit Ebubeagu in Ebonyi State.

According to the court, the disbandment of the security outfit was as a result of human rights abuses, extortions, illegal arrests and use of fire arms.

The hateful Ameboism, hypocritical attacks and envy against Yorubas will be the undoing of you Igbos as we see happening today in your five plots of Land.

It is your own official version of Amotekun, that your clueless leaders rushed to copy Yoruba leaders and create, that is officially disbanded, plus dead and buried today,for gross misconduct and human rights abuse.

Same way SARS were bad across Nigeria but only ala Igbo had a version that killed Igbos for their organs pre-ordered by your callous fellow men. Abeg keep it up. God is already serving you people bitter pills for you're obsession with Constantly denigrating, hating on and lying against all others.

You can say it without crying 😂😂😂

You're the one crying because you people just show you are creatures of hate who rush to condemn others without thinking.

I mean, in what world would a normal aand sensible Igbo, capable of introspection and feeling shame, be first to rush to try and mock Amotekun for rogue conduction when it's Igbo equivalent, that SE leaders rushed to copy Yorubas in creating, is a condemned and disbanded rogue unit guilty of human rights abuse, illegal use of firearm, extortion, robbery etc?

At least Amotekun still exists after formation years ago yet the Igbo killer equivalent, probably full of cultist murderers, was swiftly disbanded. Your hypocrisy and lack of shame is too nauseating and repellent.

I have time to write it, since exposing Igbo hypocrisy before ignorant Nigerians is important, so don't worry about who is reading. You can ignore.

At least we are educating ignorant Nigerians who are totally oblivious of the fact of matters they comment on.

Now, at the very least, a few other Nigerians will know una hypocrisy when you attack Amotekun considering the Igbo equivalent, I.e Ebebeagu, were a demonic force disbanded for commiting human rights abuse and all manners of Atrocities Against ordinary Igbos. Mission accomplished.

Bro, even the official equivalent of Amotekun Igbo leaders rushed to copy Yorubas and create, i.e Ebubeagu, are worse than IPOB. Imagine official security forces being worse than criminals. Only in Igbo land

Ebubeagu was disbanded for gross human rights abuse and committing all manners of atrocities against ordinary Igbos. Imagine being totally blind and always trying to shade others who have their full vision because of hateful hypocrisy.

The way they rushed in to attack Amotekun, still existing today and getting stronger, you would think they had something exemplarily better and not a disgraceful human-rights abusing entity now disbanded.
