Osun Amotekun Commander Assures Residents of Uncompromising Security

News Update

THE Corps Commander of Osun Amotekun Corps, Dr. Hon. Adekunle Isaac Omoyele, has issued a firm and resolute statement assuring the people of Osun State that their safety remains the Corps’ top priority.

This follows rising concerns over the movement of bandits escaping military crackdowns in the North West and infiltrating the South West region.

In a statement made available to the press on Sunday, Dr. Omoyele emphatically reaffirmed the Corps’ unwavering commitment to ensuring that Osun State remains secure from criminal elements seeking to wreak havoc in the state.

“We are sending a clear and unambiguous message to all criminals: Osun is not a sanctuary for bandits, kidnappers, or any group intending to disrupt the peace and security of our people,” Omoyele said.

“We will not tolerate the presence of these lawless elements in our midst. Our men are fully deployed, vigilant, and ready to combat any threats with the utmost force.”

The statement comes amid heightened fears following reports of bandits fleeing the North West and attempting to gain a foothold in the South West.

Dr. Omoyele reassured residents that the Amotekun Corps, in collaboration with other security agencies, has been strategically positioned to intercept and neutralize any security threats that may arise.

“We are actively tracking and monitoring all suspicious movements across the state, and any attempt by these criminals to make Osun their base will be met with relentless opposition,” Omoyele asserted.

“Amotekun is not just a watchful presence; we are a force for peace, and we will continue to intensify our operations against terrorism, kidnapping, and banditry. We will flush out every criminal who dares to threaten the peace of Osun.”

The Commander emphasized that the Amotekun Corps is determined to carry out its mandate without compromise, ensuring that residents feel secure in their homes and communities. He further urged the people of Osun to remain vigilant, report suspicious activities, and cooperate with security forces in the ongoing efforts to keep the state free from criminal threats.

“We understand the concerns of our people, but let me make this crystal clear: the safety of every individual in Osun is non-negotiable,” Omoyele declared.

“We will stop at nothing to ensure that bandits, kidnappers, and terrorists have no foothold in this state.” Omoyele asserted.

As Osun continues to bolster its security framework, the Amotekun Corps remains at the forefront of this decisive battle against criminality, promising that all measures will be taken to secure the future of the state and its residents.
