Sunday Igboho Creates 'Iru Ekun Security Network', Awaits FG's Approval by MATV(op): 12:02pm On May 25
Sunday Adeyemo, better known as Sunday Igboho, says he is awaiting the approval of the federal government for the take off of his proposed security outfit named “Iru Ekun Security Network”.

Iru Ekun literally means “the tail of a leopard” in Yoruba language.

Igboho said the security outfit will dislodge criminals residing in the forests of the south-west geopolitical zone.

In a statement sent to journalists on Monday, the youth leader said the necessary documents had been submitted to the federal government for the approval on establishment of the security outfit.

Igboho said he is ready to comply with the executive order of Seyi Makinde, governor of Oyo, seeking to regulate the activities of private security groups in the state.

“We have submitted all the required documents for our registered security firm, Iru Ekun Security Network and only waiting for the Federal Government approval which will be granted soon,” he said.

“We are absolutely ready to collaborate with the Police, Department of State Service (DSS), Nigeria Army, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) and other relevant stakeholders in the security sector to flush out terrorists, kidnappers, bandits, and other hoodlums, who are threatening the peace and safety of our people, most especially in rural communities.

“It is obvious that President Bola Tinubu’s administration is resolutely committed to tackle criminalities not only in the South West but also in all other regions plagued by insecurity.

“Besides, I want to state that we are also ready to comply with the new Executive Order issued by Governor Seyi Makinde to regulate the activities of private security concerns. We are ready to support and cooperate with measures aimed at strengthening the security and peace in Oyo and other states in Yorubaland.

“Without peace and security, healthy socioeconomic developments cannot thrive, most especially in the rural communities which remain the hub of agricultural production critical to the nation’s food security and means of livelihood for farmers.”

Last Wednesday, Makinde signed an executive order to regulate the activities of associations and groups offering security-related services in Oyo.

Makinde said the order becomes necessary to facilitate coordination of security efforts since insecurity has become “more sophisticated”.

He noted that the order was designed to ensure that “all groups involved in security-related activities operate within a clear legal and operational framework that supports peace, order, and the rule of law”.

Do you support the creation of regional security outfits like this?

Should states and communities play a bigger role in handling security?

This boy wan pass him boundary again

Igboho already proved he can't be trusted. Imagine during the herdsmen crisis during Buhari, Igboho could have complicated the matter and still run away like a coward he's

On this whole forum, only few of us stood our ground about not Igboho getting involved. If you weren't part, just ignore my message. I personally know the role I played about the herdsmen issue in SW

The security whatever he even set up, who will fund it?

Iru ekun ko, iru okete ni

The same people who criticized ESN and called Kanu unprintable names for ESN will start stuttering in support of this Iru Ekun.
If they tell you that those guys from the East are like several million years more enlightened and advanced than you, you'd start stuttering again and shaking convulsively.

This initiative is in Oyo state. Lagos did not accept the South West proposal to support Amotekun as a vigilante. I am wondering why this is in Oyo State. Is it politics again?
Re: Sunday Igboho Creates 'Iru Ekun Security Network', Awaits FG's Approval by edogu(m): 1:40pm On May 25
He should tread carefully. He's gradually crossing his boundaries. Amotekun is there already.

Anyone who criticizes this move at this point in time is an enemy of progress.

You wouldn't expect him (Tinubu) to bypass the Governor of the state, will he?
Re: Sunday Igboho Creates 'Iru Ekun Security Network', Awaits FG's Approval by johannu(m):
If the government could commission Tompolo to protect oil pipeline, the government would do well to commission individual groups like Iru Ekun Security Network of Sunday Igboho to protect our forest against kidnappers and killer herdsmen.

Let's just keep it simple and straightforward. Absolutely, it's a straightforward endorsement. No fuss, a good, solid affirmation of the benefits for everyone involved. Smooth sailing, really.

You want to give Security apparatus to non state actors, is it that some of you don't learn anything from OPC

How? By going after gumi's footsoldiers who kidnapped 35 kids and 7 teachers? Would you rather igboho stays put and let the fulanis over-run yorubaland?

Comparing OPC with igboho initiative is a different things entirely, can you tell me why Opc was established in south west, is it to combate banditry or for political purpose.

This man is voicing out, at this time Yoruba is facing challenges of insecurity and others. You are doing comparative

If I am even correct self , Opc were active in the early 2000

So, you folks are several million years more enlightened than..........?. Million years ke?
However, we all saw the gazette that Okpara came out with, stipulating that no one (in the old eastern region) should come to the marketplace, unclothed.
The year was 1963!

He should allow the politicians to fix the issue they created without escalating the issue

There are some things some of you don't know. Would the bandits, terrorists have the confidence to operate in SW without having local collaborators?
