The Ondo State Governor, Oluwarotimi Akeredolu has repeated the need for collaborative efforts among security agencies operating in the state for effective protection of lives and property.
Gov. Akeredolu said that his administration would continue to prioritize security issues and give support to all security agencies in the state.
The Governor, while playing host to the new Comptroller of the Nigeria Immigration Service, Ondo State Command, Mrs Oluwafunmilayo Bosede, said this on Wednesday.
He urged the command to do more in safeguarding lives and property.
Akeredolu disclosed that the state was planning a memorial for the victims of the Owo June 5 attack.
We will put something in place in memory of all those who were gruesomely murdered. It is good to know that some of the culprits have been apprehended, Akeredolu said.
The comptroller, who is an indigene of Akure, congratulated Akeredolu for bagging the National Honours of the Commander of the Order of the Niger, (CON).
Particularly, she commended Akeredolu for his passion and love for the people which made him to champion the establishment of the Amotekun Corps.
Amotekun Corps is an establishment that addresses the security challenges in the state and other states in the South-West.
Furthermore, the comptroller promised to synergize with other security agencies to further reduce criminality, just as she condemned the attack unleashed on the Catholic Church in Owo by terrorists.
Bosede assured the governor of continued collaboration with the government towards securing the state and the people.
All thanks to our amiable governor who has once again demonstrated his love for his people through the establishment of Amotekun.
On our part as immigration officers, we promise to join force with other security agencies in order to maintain effective and efficient security within the mandate of our operation, she said.
