Ogun State House of Assembly has decried the continued invasion of the State by officers and men of the Nigeria Police Force, Lagos State Command, especially from Zone 2 Command Headquarters and FCIID, Alagbon, with the sole aim of carrying out incessant arrests of innocent residents which is aiding the activities of land grabbers and illegal claimants to Chieftaincy stools in the State.
The Speaker, Rt. Hon. Oludaisi Elemide, condemned the act while responding to the submissions of a member representing Ipokia/Idiroko State Constituency, Hon. Adebisi Oyedele and his Yewa North I Counterpart, Adeyanju Adegoke who spoke under Personal Explanation at the plenary session held at the Assembly Complex, Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta.
Elemide pointed out that the unholy operation of some of those security operatives who carried out the operations beyond their jurisdictions was as a result of a vested interest of some criminal elements using them to perpetrate unlawful activities, noting that the illegal operations had continue to affect the security of lives and properties of the people in the State.
Recalling that the State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun had zero tolerance for land grabbing and other criminal activities, the Speaker noted that the Governor was committed to rid the State of criminal elements.
He called on the State Attorney General/Commissioner for Justice, the Commissioner of Police in the State and the Commander of the State Amotekun Corps to step up measures by activating all security apparatus to curtail criminal activities in the State.
He called on the Inspector General of Police to wade in, saying there is a police command domiciled in the State, which should not warrant operatives from Lagos to harrass innocent residents, clarifying that State would not submit its sovereignty to any other authorities under any guise.
