Kwara Police Mount Patrol Amid Report on Terrorists Invading Parks, Reserves

The Kwara State Police on Saturday said that the State is safe and secured.

A social media report had claimed that some forest reserves in parts of the State have been surrounded and ready to be used as launching-pads to attack Kwara residents and some neighbouring States in the country.

Debunking the alleged intelligence report, Commissioner of Police, Tuesday Assayomo, in a statement signed by the Command’s spokesperson, SP Okasanmi Ajayi, maintained that no part of Kwara is occupied by bandits or terrorists.

According to Okasanmi, the writer and sharer of the fake intelligence report are mischievous, desirous of sowing a seed of distrust and fear in the minds of the good people of Kwara State in particular and Nigeria in general.

“It was an attempt to create panic in the minds of peace loving Kwarans. But they have failed!”

The Police Commissioner, re-stated the commitment of the police and other security agencies in Kwara State of their red-alertness to the protection and defend the life and property of citizens and residents of Kwara State.

The CP further assures the people of their safety at all times, adding that aggressive and extensive patrols have been emplaced in the state, while vigilante groups and hunters have been coopted in patrolling the forests and bushes .

“Once again, the command would not relent in regular patrols, intelligence gathering and raiding of black spots in conjunction with sister security agencies in the state,” he said.
