Tuesday, January 28, 2025 - The Commander of the Ondo State Security Network Agency, codenamed Amotekun Corps, Adetunji Adeleye, has disclosed that the corps is leaving no stone unturned in its efforts to prevent fleeing bandits from penetrating the state.
According to Adeleye, the move has become imperative to ensure
watertight security following the influx of bandits into the southwest.
The Corps Commander, who revealed this to newsmen at the headquarters of
the security outfit in Akure, the state capital, stated that his men have
arrested over 300 suspected criminals in the state over the last three months.
While stressing that the suspects were arrested across the 18 local
council areas of the state, Adeleye emphasized that many of the suspected
criminals apprehended in the border communities were linked to various criminal
activities.
“We rely heavily on grassroots intelligence. In the last three months,
we arrested and paraded over 300 suspects across approximately 15 locations in
the 18 local government areas of the state.
“Some of these suspects have been prosecuted in court, while others had
their cases resolved. However, many of them remain in correctional centres
across the state,” he said.
