THIS DAY
The Ondo State Commander of the Western Security Network Agency, codenamed Amotekun, Mr. Adetunji Adeleye, yesterday revealed that over 9,000 herders illegally found their way into the state through the border towns in the last one month.
Adeleye, who also doubles as the special adviser on security matters, made the revelation while parading 31 suspects apprehended for crimes that ranged from kidnapping, rape, burglary, rituals, stealing, arson, illegal possession of firearms among others.
He explained that the 9000 herders who ‘illegally’ found their way into the state through the border towns have been chased back, adding that the herders always entered the state through the border towns at the dead of the night.
