"Bandits, Criminals Have Taken Over Forests In Osun State" – South-West Corps, Amotekun Commander, Adewimbi

The Osun State Network Agency, Amotekun Corps’ Commander, Brig Gen Bashir Adewimbi (retd.), has said that they had credible intelligence that bandits and criminals are hiding in Osun forests.

Adewimbi in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), on Saturday in Ede, said more courageous hunters would be recruited to strengthen security and flush out bandits hiding in forests.

“The banditry and terrorism we are experiencing in our region now is the spillover effect of what is happening around the country. We have credible intelligence that bandits are all in our forests and we are strategising to comb the forests and make sure we drive them away or arrest them,” he said.

The commander said, “The operatives of the corps are determined to go into the forests and flush out these criminals using the forests as their hideout. The governor has approved the recruitment of more operatives who are competent.

“We will not be recruiting or engaging those who are just looking for work but people that are bold and courageous that will go into the forest to confront and combat criminals hiding in the forests.

“We are going to recruit courageous hunters that go into the forest to hunt for weeks and months. The people we are looking for, we want now, are people that can combat the problem on the ground.”

He said presently, the corps had only 360 operatives, deployed to all the 30 local government areas, and a local council area, in the state, stating that there was a serious need to recruit more men.

Adewimbi said, “Although the state Amotekun corps gathers intelligence and works with existing security agencies to enhance community policing, their restriction to carry firearms limits their crime-fighting operations.

“Basically, we provide information and confront criminals where there is a need for it, even though we are not adequately armed. In the process of our recruitment we factored in the fact that we are not allowed to carry arms /guns but we are working on obtaining licensed guns.”

Speaking on how to improve security in the state, Adewimbi called on the residents to always monitor their environments and not to harbor criminals.

Fake news
There's no forest in SW, what they have is bush

Shettima's foot soldiers have long gone ahead of him to prepare the way. Abeg "where are the cows?" Emilokan is not unconcerned even if these bandits or terrorists kill his people in Iragibi, but he is only obsessed with his inordinate ambition to rule the one Nigeria he once never believed in.

The red flags or warning signs have long been there but political sophistication is beclouding the sense of many people in this region.

[quote author=Racoon post=116109530]A former Director of the Directorate of Military Intelligence, Col. Kunle Togun (rtd), has raised the alarm that..................[color=#990000]The Yoruba nation is under invasion and that is a fact.The entire Yorubaland has been invaded by these herdsmen and unfortunately, some people are supporting this because of political considerations.”

[i][b]"....Insecurity in the country, particularly the South-West region, predominantly occupied by the Yoruba tribe, has recently risen with herdsmen from the Fulani extraction fingered

It has still happening.
