The Governor of Osun State, Senator Ademola Adeleke, has enhanced security protocols around governmental facilities in the state to prevent any potential seizure by purported Yoruba activists.
In a statement, the governor’s spokesperson, Mallam Olawale Rasheed, disclosed that Adeleke has instructed his Special Adviser on Security Affairs, Mr. Samuel Ojo, to promptly coordinate the mobilization of combined security units to safeguard the State Government Secretariat, the Government House, and other vital government premises, including the headquarters of the Osun State Broadcasting Corporation (OSBC).
“In line with the Governor’s directive, security men and women were deployed to identified locations yesterday to ensure the Oyo State incident is not repeated at Osogbo, the Osun State Capital,” read the statement.
“Governor Adeleke while issuing the directive called for rededication to the ideals of a united Nigeria with ongoing constitutional amendments to ensure a truly federal system in Nigeria.”
He encouraged activists to participate in the campaign for reforming the federal system to facilitate changes that grant states greater autonomy and duties.
“We must support President Tinubu as he drives the federal reform efforts. We have a duty to stand by Mr President in the realization of this difficult national assignment.”, Governor Adeleke was quoted as saying.
“I associate with my brother, the Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde. I urge the agitators to sheath their swords. We must continue to try to realize the Nigeria of our dreams.
