Gov AbdulRazaq Commends President Tinubu As Army Deploys Full Brigade To Kwara Forests

Nigerian Army headquarters has deployed a full brigade and heavy equipment to different parts of Kwara South senatorial district, as troops are already milling through communities inward Oke Ode and Babanla, both in Ifelodun Local Government Area.

The operation is also extending to Edu and Patigi local governments to comb through thick forests from which kidnappers have launched cowardly attacks on different communities and abducted people in return for ransom. 

A statement made available to Team@orientactualmags.com by Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq’ s Chief Press Secretary, Mr Rafiu Ajakaye noted that the Kwara State Chief Executive, who met and discussed the issue with President Bola Tinubu during his visit to Jos at the weekend, commended the president for the support, and the military high-command and allied security forces for the renewed intervention to eliminate all threats to public safety in the state. 

‘We will not spare any resources in support of the military, DSS, police, and other security agencies as they work to strengthen security of lives and property.

We are upbeat that this operation, as part of the Operation Fasan Yanma, will eliminate all forms of threats in the affected areas in Kwara South and Kwara North. I thank the President and the security agencies for the efforts so far. As I said a few days ago, we just need to double our efforts to save the people. We are confident that the operation, under the theatre commander Major General Soyele, who is accompanied by Brigadier General AA Babatunde, will succeed in this important task and clear the entire areas’ the statement quoted the governor as saying.

It will be recalled that the Army Headquarters had recently directed the GOC 2nd Mechanized Division, Major General CR Nnebeife to relocate to Kwara to coordinate the operations to roll back the activities of the criminals.

The governor also commended the Office of the National Security Adviser, the Chief of Army Staff, the General Officer Commanding of the 2nd Mechanized Division, and every other officer for their support--Team@orientactualmags.com  Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
