The Ogun State Amotekun Corps has declared war on criminals in the state as the nation prepares for the festive season. During a 'show of force' event in Abeokuta on Tuesday, Corps Commander Brigadier-General Alade Adedigba (Rtd) assured residents of safety before, during, and after the yuletide season.
Adedigba stated that the corps is equipped and ready to combat lawlessness, with personnel deployed to key areas, including the Sagamu-Ore Expressway. He emphasized that the exercise aims to reassure residents of Ogun State's safety and peace, highlighting the joint efforts of security agencies.
"The inlets and outlets of the state are well covered and effectively dominated. We are taking no risks, so residents can sleep soundly during this period," Adedigba said, warning criminals that Ogun State is not a safe haven.
He praised the state government for providing technological equipment, enabling effective security operations. Governor Prince Dapo Abiodun's support has empowered the agency to discharge its duties effectively, Adedigba noted, adding that Amotekun is ready to become a state police if approved .
