Kwara State Governor, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, has vowed that bandits and kidnappers will find no hiding place in the state, following Sunday’s bloody attack on Oke-Ode community in Ifelodun Local Government Area. Gunmen had reportedly ambushed local vigilantes and a traditional leader in the area, leaving several people dead and residents gripped with fear. AbdulRazaq stated, “I have assurances from the security forces to smoke out and eliminate the criminals from their hideouts. “To any criminal who seeks to destabilise the peace in Kwara, you may run, but you cannot escape justice. Kwara belongs to its people, and their peace will be defended.”The latest development comes amid heightened concerns over insecurity in Kwara, particularly after the Oke-Ode killings, which have sparked calls for tougher measures to secure communities along the state’s borders.
