"As part of our swift measure to end the unfortunate tread of insecurity in Ibarapaland, today I donated fifteen motorcycles to our indigenous security bodies (Amotekun, OPC, Vigilantes, Local Hunters etc) in Ibarapa East, Central and North Local governments", said Ogundoyin.
Ogundoyin who is representing Ibarapa East State Constituency had earlier promised to support every local and communally setup security structure, outfit or strategy during his urgent security meeting in the region after the Sunday bandits’ attack on the people of Igangan in Ibarapa North Local Government.
The attack which happened at the wee hours of Sunday when residents of Igangan, Ibarapa North Local Government had retired to bed was allegedly masterminded by bandits and suspected herders in which about 21 residents lost their lives, some injured and properties burnt including the palace of the Ashigangan of Igangan.
While presenting the motorcycles to community leaders and heads of local security bodies at the Divisional Police Headquarters in Eruwa, Ogundoyin said, “We are donating these motorcycles to improve the mobility of our indigenous security personnel- Amotekun, OPC, local Hunters, vigilance groups and enhance their operation as they continue to compliment the efforts of the Nigerian Police and other security agencies in securing lives, properties and our territories from bandits and criminals.
“A peaceful community cannot be overemphasized. If our societies are not secured, who will utilize the infrastructures that we are providing as government? Who will attend the free schools or even engage in their various economic activities and businesses.
