Soldiers, forest guards to tackle insecurity in Kwara State

The Kwara Government says it has concluded plans to deploy the army and forest guards, to tackle insecurity in Edu and Ifelodun Local Government Areas (LGAs) of the state.

Gov. AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq said this on Sunday in Ilorin, during a meeting with the leadership of the Lafiagi Descendants’ Development Union (LADDU) headed by Dr Abdullahi Lafiagi.

AbdulRasaq acknowledged the concerns of the communities and reassured them of the government-led multi-stakeholders’ response to the situation.

According to him, the operations will rout the criminals from their hideouts and restore lasting calm in the affected areas.

He assured that precautions would be taken, to prevent the violent elements from hibernating elsewhere.

“The government has been working with the Office of the National Security Adviser to eliminate these threats in parts of the state, especially  in identified settlements in Ifelodun, Edu and Patigi.

“No one can dismiss the worries of our community folks.

“Security issues require careful and realistic analysis of the situation, planning and execution of plans for sustainable success,” he said.

The governor noted that the Nigerian army had concluded arrangements to launch sustained operations in the forests identified as the fortress of the criminal gangs in Kwara North and South.

“The operations will involve the newly trained forest guards in the isolated areas,” he said.
