EKO HOT BLOG reports that the Governor of Anambra State, Prof. Charles Soludo, has announced that the state’s Joint Security Task Force has demolished some notorious kidnappers’ hideouts.

On Friday, security operatives raided and destroyed hideouts and buildings harboring criminals in Oba, Idemili South Local Government Area, according to a statement issued by Soludo’s Press Secretary, Christian Aburime, in Awka, Anambra State Capital.

According to him, the hideout had earlier been raided recently and exhibits such as a locally made pistol, shrine, charms, concoctions, and Indian hemp, among other incriminating materials were recovered.

Soludo commended the efforts of the State Joint Security Task Force, saying the demolition exercise would serve as a deterrent to other criminals.

According to the governor, it was established that the building demolished was being used as a den for criminal activities.

He said his government would not allow any criminality to reign in the state.
