He said the organisation was established to support efforts against kidnappers, bandits and other criminal groups, particularly in rural communities affected by insecurity.
According to him, the outfit is ready to collaborate with security agencies including the police, the Department of State Services, the Nigerian Army and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps once approval is granted.
Igboho also pledged compliance with Executive Order 001 of 2026 signed by Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde to regulate private security organisations and community based security groups in the state.
He commended President Bola Tinubu for efforts to strengthen security across the country, adding that improved safety was necessary for economic growth and agricultural productivity in rural communities.
