Akeredolu Says No Conspiracy Will Stop Agitation For State Police
Mohammed Oluwatimileyin Taoheed reports,
The present Governor of Ondo State, Ogbeni Rotimi Akeredolu, has insisted that no level of conspiracy can be a barricade to the agitation for state police in the country.
While distributing patrol vehicles to security agencies in the state, the Governor made this known during the weekend.
Track News Nigeria learnt that Akeredolu donated 50 fitted patrol vehicles to all the security agencies as part of the dedication of his administration to further stretch the security of lives and property of the people in the state.
“Every Nigerian is coming in tune with the exigent need for its creation.
“Some powerful people in the North who had earlier condemned the initiative have begun to see the importance of establishing it for the protection of lives and property.”
While being interviewed on the distribution of patrol vehicles to the security agencies, Akeredolu told Track News Nigeria that it was “towards boosting the capacity of our men in the line of duty of crime fighting.”
The fitted patrol vehicles were distributed to the army, navy, police, the civil defence corps, Department of State Services and the Amotekun Corps.
Akeredolu explained that the commissioning and handing over of additional 50 vehicles was a further demonstration of his commitment to providing the needed support for all security agencies operating in the state.
He stressed that his administration places a premium on the dignity of human lives, pledging to force out all criminals in the state from their hidings and make the state uncomfortable for them.
