Ashleyeniwin: GOVERNOR AKEREDOLU ORDERS RELEASE OF ONDO MONARCH FROM PRISON AFTER NINE MONTHS
Ondo State governor, Oluwarotimi Akeredolu has ordered the unconditional release of Ogeleyinbo of Ayetoro community, Oba Oluwambe Ojagbohunmi (JP), from Olokuta Medium Prison after nine months of unlawful arrest.
Oba Oluwambe Ojagbohunmi was arrested and remanded in January.
The monarch alongside the Baba Ijo and the Public Relations Officer of the community, Mr. Lawrence Lemamu and Mr. Victor Akinluwa respectively, were hoodwinked to Akure by the police and detained nine months ago.
Akeredolu had frowned over the protracted remand of the monarch over a kingship tussle between him and Micah Ajijo in Ayetoro,a community in Ilaje Local Government Area of the state.
Meanwhile, the Supreme Council of Elders and Ayetoro Youth Congress (AYC), yesterday, jointly expressed the gratitude of the people towards the kind gesture of the governor to promptly intervene in the matter.
They thanked Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu “for his timely intervention towards the release of our people who were before now, unlawfully arrested and remanded at the Olukuta Medium Prison.
Speaking on behalf of the Council and entire community, Most Rev. Apostle Joshua Bankole, declared unflinching support for Akeredolu’s government and his future endeavours politically.
“We also seize this medium to tell Mr. Governor that, Ayetoro, being the most populous community in Ilaje LGA and her people would always be in support of Mr. Governor in all of his political dealings and we tip him to continue the good works that he has been doing in Ondo State since he came to power.”
Bankole hailed the governor for his relentless efforts to curtail the sea incursions “and also remind him that the devastation of the sea encroachment is high: it has destroyed hundreds of thousands of houses and properties.
“We therefore, humbly call on the governor to come to our rescue as Ayetoro is at the verge of being submerged by the Atlantic Ocean. Please, accept our sincere appreciation.”

Busy002: The closure of Nigeria’s borders by Federal Government was undertaken to strengthen the nation’s security and protect its economic interests, the Comptroller-General of Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), retired Col. Hameed Ali, has said.
Speaking during a meeting with border stakeholders, comprising freight forwarders and security agencies on Thursday at Seme, Ali said that the closure was not intended to hurt anyone but to protect the nations interests.
“Our interest is to make sure that our country is secure, the well-being of our people is ensured and our economy is secure.
“The step we have taken is in the interest of Nigeria, the step is not to hurt anybody but to protect our own interests as a nation,” he said.
News9naija reports that Ali was accompanied at the meeting by Nigeria’s Ambassador to Benin Republic, Kayode Oguntuase, Comptroller General Immigration, Mohammed Babandede and Brig. Gen. E.A Ndagi, Coordinator of Joint Border Security Exercise, among others.
The NCS boss said that lots of things had gone wrong regarding compliance with transit of goods, adding that the border closure was to ensure that things were streamlined so that all stakeholders could be back to doing the right things.
“The idea is to ensure that the protocol that is involved in transit of goods and trade facilitation is adhered to so that we will all live and complement each other.
“The operation is undertaken to ensure that we get things back in perspective; we know the right thing, it is well written, we are all aware of it, we used to practise it, so we must go back to that.
Ali said that the freight forwarders were critical stakeholders at the borders and urged them to ensure compliance with the rules regarding transit of goods.
“We cannot do business without you but compliance is lacking between you and our officers. Most of the things we do, we don’t comply with rules and that’s why we end up with weapons, Tramadol that killed our children.
“We end up with ammunition that bandits use to kill our people; we don’t manufacture ammunition in this country, if we do it is only from one source and that source is well protected and documented.
“But today, we have seen many of this ammunition in Nigeria, where are they coming from.
“They have compromised with some of us and some of you and I say to our officers; that weapons, that bullets you facilitate in transiting into Nigeria, you don’t know who will take it.
“The bandits, the armed robbers had no choice, your mother, my children, your sisters might be shot by that weapon,” the customs boss said.
He called for support and cooperation of the stakeholders to ensure the nation is protected.
“We need your support, we need your cooperation and understanding, our national interest is over and above any issue,” he said.
NEWS9NAIJA reports that the joint-border security exercise, code-named ‘Ex-Swift Response’, which was ordered by the Federal Government, commenced on Aug. to secure Nigeria’s land and maritime borders.
