In his own words, “Amotekun has been politicalised. What a shame! How can Amotekun with Pump Action/Dane Gun engage the 4th most dangerous terror group in the world that has sophisticated weapons like AK-47?
It’s time for an outfit with pedigree like Odua People’s Congress (OPC) to take over.”
Reacting to this statement, controversial politician and a one time presidential aspirant, Adamu Garba blasted him, calling him an advocate of hate speech who runs an imaginary fraud territory, and challenged the IPOB leader for “insulting” the sons and daughters of Oduduwa.
Garba tweeted, “Nnamdi, an advocate of hate speech who runs an imaginary fraud territory have the guts to insult genuine sons & daughters of Oduduwa using command & control tone. What a shame! Good thing is, if you run referendum in the east today, 99% of them will reject the hater in chief.”
