Makinde Distributes Additional 100 Operational Vehicle To Security Agencies.

Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, has distributed over 100 patrol vehicles with full communication gadgets to various security agencies in the state.

The beneficiary agencies are the Nigeria Police, Army, Customs, Correctional service, Immigration, Joint Security Task Force known as Operation Burst, state security network agency codenamed Amotekun, Nigeria Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), and the state Road Traffic Management Authority (OYRTMA).

The presentation of the vehicles to the beneficiaries held on Wednesday January 10 at the open field of the state Assembly complex, Agodi Secretariat, Ibadan.

Recall that Governor Makinde had earlier late last year presented security vans to the Police and some iother security agencies including Amotekun Corps in a bid to better equip personnel on effective policing and swift response.
Makinde said the state government’s commitment to enhancing the duties and operations of security agencies is in recognition of their interventions and efforts to keep the state secure.
While charging them to be resolute in fishing out and dealing with criminals, Makinde tasked the security chiefs not to hesitate in informing him about the welfare of personnel that will be deployed.

Speaking on behalf of the state security chiefs, the Commissioner of Police in the state, CP Adebola Hamzat, said he was awed that the state government embarked on another distribution of vehicles to security agencies, not long after handing them security pickup vans.
Hamzat assured that security agencies would make good use of the vehicles to guarantee security across the state
