The Ondo State Security outfit codenamed Amotekun, said it has uncovered a sinister plot by bandits to attack the state.<\/p>\n

Consequently, the security network, in bid to foil the plot, had commenced a stop-and-search, identification exercise across the state.<\/p>\n

Addressing newsmen in Akure, the state capital, the state commander of Amotekun, Chief Adetunji Adeleye said over fifty unregistered and tinted vehicles without police permits had been impounded during the stop and search identification exercise.<\/p>\n

Adeleye noted that no amount of criticism of the exercise would make it back down on its mandate to rid the state of criminal activities during the yuletide.<\/p>\n

According to him \u201cthe stop-and-search and vehicle identification exercise embarked upon by operatives of the corps across major roads in the state was backed by law. The operation was being done in collaboration with other security agencies.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe received intelligence report from credible quarters that bandits<\/a> and criminals are trying to carry out nefarious activities in the state. We hinted the general public about two weeks ago to be very vigilant.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis information became more credible when we heard that some of the places mentioned in the intelligence report, armed robbers had actually struck. One in Osun and the other in Ekiti State.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe state government in its quest to ensure adequate security of lives and property in the state quickly called security council meeting where all security agencies were directed to be on \u2018yellow\u2019 , on alert and to sensitise the public to be careful, watchful and to intimate any security agency in the state of any suspicious movement.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs part of the core mandate of Amotekun which is mainly complementary to the services of all security agencies. Before this exercise, we recognize the need to intimate the general public which was done.<\/p>\n

\u201cVirtually, more than 90 percent of criminal activities in the state are been perpetrated with the use of unregistered, covered and tinted vehicles. Again, majority of these criminal activities are also being carried out using Okada especially in the evenings.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo this end, the state government directed all security agencies in the state to collaborate and work together to ensure that after the deadline, whoever uses a dark tinted glass would carry a police permit.<\/p>\n

\u201cFurthermore, the use of unregistered vehicles on roads which makes it difficult to track down criminals was also banned.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t see any reason you will buy a car and you choose to not register it for one to three years if you don\u2019t have ulterior motive.<\/p>\n

\u201cAgain, the law is clear on the use of tinted glasses. Approach the relevant security agency and obtain a permit.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe found out that some of the criticisms coming up from an uninformed point of view, accuses the corps of going beyond its mandate. I want to refer them to the Ondo State Security Agency and the Amotekun Corps law of 2020; Section 5; 5a; 5i; 5j which gives specific core mandate to the exercise being carried out by the agency.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn the specifics, it creates provision for the collaboration with other security agencies in monitoring criminals on major roads.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe provision of the law is very clear about it and I want to advise them to pick a copy of the law which is available in the public domain. Most of these criticisms come from sponsored agents who felt they could blackmail to turndown the arms of the law.<\/p>\n

Adeleye assured residents of the state of the security outfits commitment to ensuring safety of their lives and property.<\/p>\n

He said that violated would be made to comply with the penalties before impounded vehicles would be released to them.<\/p>\n

\u201d Any vehicle that\u2019s not registered and has been in the country beyond the six months permitted by the law would be impounded by the joint monitoring team.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll vehicles with tainted glass and not authorised by the appropriate institution would be impounded by the team.<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to assure you that we remain focus and committed to assisting all other security agencies in the state in ensuring safety of lives and property in Ondo State.<\/p>\n

Adeleye said that the \u201d ln the usual magnanimity of the governor of the state, he has opened a window whereby those not willing to go to mobile courts would settled with the board of internal revenue, they have to register those vehicles before they take them out of our custody, tinted vehicles will have to remove those tints or bring permits and cautionary fee would be paid to the coffer of the state government.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
