Ofonime U. Sam: "Just when I thought that the Yorubas had a strong ally in the north and the South East were their enemies, but the unfolding events in recent days have proved me otherwise
Ajmalu Sani: "When other region decided to go for Hisbah. Then, why should another region be denied the right to have AMOTEKUN? Let's have a rethink on that. Be fair and honest in your dealings with citizens.
Eli Gregory: "What is the fear of the North in restructuring Nigeria. Look at the bold step De Clark of South Africa took to restructure South Africa and won the Nobel Peace price with Nelson Mandela for that year."
Fasakin Dipo West: "What is Balarabe's business if operation Amotekun leads to the declaration of Oduduwa republic? Hausas should get their own Arewa Republic, or who is stopping them?"
Oludare Adebiyi: "Who is afraid of break up? We want to protect ourselves, Balarabe said is a plan to create Oduduwa Republic, You too can go and create Arewa republic."
Uche Okeke: "So sad that another opportunity to transform the North is being wasted in the pursuit of senseless Expansionism and Conquest idea. In the words of Charles Krauthammer, "Primitive 19th- century notions as Conquest are self - defeating. History sees to their defeat". Today people are enlightened and awakened."
Omon Israel: "Why are some northerners losing sleep over an issue that doesn't concern their region. Balarabe & Co should look for how to end the insecurities in the Northwest and the Northeast Biko."
