According to him: “What we observed in the last few months is that these attackers operate outside Ondo State, they come into the border towns, operate and retreat.

“So we contacted the security agencies in Edo and Kogi States which are the major areas where they retreat and they have agreed to cooperate with us,” he explained.

“In a couple of days from now, a major onslaught is in the pipeline to completely clear the forest reserves within the boundaries of Ondo-Kogi and Ondo-Edo so as to dislodge these criminals from our farmlands.”

All these are aimed at ensuring that adequate security is emplaced within the state.
