Bwacha Advocates Adopting Amotekun Security Outfit for N'east States
The Senate Deputy Minority Leader, Senator Emmanuel Bwacha, has called on states in the North-east geo political zone of the country to consider adopting Amotekun, the recently launched security outfit of the South-west.
Speaking during plenary Wednesday, he said: “The matter I want to explain before my colleagues is topical and unique in a way. Officials in the Federal Ministry of Works went to my senatorial district and I advised them to go with security men. This incident, he said, has heightened fears among citizens of Taraba State and its environs, adding that it has given credence to speculations in the social media that they have planned an attack on communities around Yoro and Jalingo, the capital of Taraba State, in a commando style like it happened in Garkida.
