Femi Fani-Kayode has applauded the South-South Governors Forum over the move to set up a regional security outfit for the region.

Fani-Kayode, a former Minister of Aviation, said regional security outfit was the only way to go in the current Nigerian security situation.

The South-South governors had on Thursday declared that they were going to set up a security outfit similar to Amotekun in the oil rich region.

The South West governors recently set up Amotekun, a local security outfit that will help checkmate the activities of killer herdsmen and other criminals in the region.
