“It is obvious that the south west security outfit has all it takes to flush out the bad elements in the region,” he said.
Speaking on behalf of the OPC, Oguntimehin urged southeast Governors to back the Eastern Security Network (ESN) so that criminals that fled southwest will not shift to the eastern part of the country. ‘
He added that the governors should come up with a lasting approach like that of the South West to rid the region of criminals masquerading as herdsmen.
“Now that the southwest is doing everything that is necessary to rid the region of criminal elements, including killer herdsmen and kidnappers, the southeast remains their next target and destination for destruction.
“It is advisable for the governors of the South East to enforce a better approach and modalities for securing the region using the Eastern Security Network (ESN),” he advised.
