Nowhere Will Be Safe for Criminals, Kidnappers in Kwara, Gov Abdulrazaq Says After Security Meeting

Published

on

Kwara State Governor Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to protecting lives and property across the state, declaring that nowhere in Kwara will be safe for criminal elements, including kidnappers.

The Governor spoke after a security council meeting on Tuesday night.

Following the recent attack at Oke Ode, the Governor moved swiftly to brief President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, during which he reiterated his request for additional federal deployment to raid the hideouts.

“The Army Headquarters has since relocated the General Officer Commanding (GOC) of the 2nd Division to Ilorin as part of the renewed efforts to strengthen security operations in the state,” he said.

“On Monday night, combined forces of the Army, DSS and Police launched an offensive around Baba Sango, along the Kwara–Kogi border, neutralising about 15 armed bandits. The same operation continued on Tuesday. And yesterday night, I presided over the State Security Council meeting at Ahmadu Bello House, Ilorin, to integrate state and federal assets into a single strategy for both Kwara North and South.”

In a statement on Wednesday shared by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor Rafiu Ajakaye, Governor AbdulRazaq assured Kwara residents that his administration would not relent in supporting security agencies to keep every community safe.

“I have assurances of the security forces to smoke out and eliminate the criminals from their hideouts. We will fight insecurity with every resource at our disposal. Kwara will not be a hiding place for criminals. To any criminal who seeks to destabilise the peace in Kwara, you may run, but you cannot escape justice. Kwara belongs to its people, and their peace will be defended,” the Governor added.
