A socio-cultural organisation, Oyo Patriotic Front, has praised Oyo State Governor Abiola Ajimobi for the early detection of another kidnappers’ den at Ojoku Village in Ona-Ara Local Government Area.
A statement in Ibadan yesterday by its Chairman, Chief Jare Adepoju, attributed the early detection to the proactive measures taken by the governor after the Soka incident.
“We are aware that the government has ordered all security agencies to comb the nooks and crannies of the state to smoke out these nefarious characters. There should be no rest in their pursuit,” said the group.
The group added that it was aware that undercover agents were also deployed to monitor the activities of unscrupulous elements, particularly kidnappers, and their possible hideouts.
It commended the governor for not only detecting the heinous activities going on at Soka then, but also for transforming the hitherto kidnappers’ den to a model school equipped with modern infrastructure, in accordance with the requests of the residents.
“We sincerely appreciate the governor for his efforts so far in stemming the tide of kidnappers on the prowl.
“We, however, urge him not to rest on his oars by smoking out all the bad elements in the state.
“The new Oyo State envisaged by the governor, in his second inauguration speech, should have no place for bad elements,” the group said.
