Inter-Agency Confrontation: Governor Adeleke Conveys Security Council Meeting.

OSOGBO- 26/10/2024- osunstate.gov.ng

Governor Ademola Adeleke of Osun state has convened a meeting of the State Security Council for next week to assess and take action on recent security developments in the state including an open clash between some policemen and civil defence officials.

The Council meeting is to receive briefings from the various security agencies as well as top state officials led by the Deputy Governor, Prince Kola Adewusi who had intervened in the matter before its current escalation.

Governor Adeleke expressed surprise at the open brawl between the two security agencies, urging the services to strictly adhere to their codes of operations in the law enforcement process.

He also noted rising cases of police- civilian confrontations across the state, urging all service commanders to enforce discipline within their ranks and file to sustain the widely acknowledged civil- security cordial relationship in the state.

While warning against high handedness in law enforcement, the Governor further urged all stakeholders to avoid actions and inactions capable of jeopardizing the records of Osun state as the most peaceful state in the federation.

“I task our commanders to enforce discipline and operational rules among their men and women. Rogue operation is increasing, civilian harassment is on the rise and now service to service confrontation is added. We must restore normalcy.

“All these matters of urgency will be tackled at the next security council meeting. Our Service Commanders have been wonderful. We must not relax in our quest to restore closer inter- agency partnership and collaboration”, the Governor was quoted as saying in the statevent.

Mallam Olawale Rasheed,
Spokesperson to the State Governor.
