LG boss rallies Ekiti, Kwara hunters against transborder kidnappers

Date: 2022-02-15

Following incessant cases of kidnapping in Ero Local Council Development Area (LCDA), the Chairman of the Council, Hon. Akin Alebiosu, has initiated a synergy between local hunters in the axis with the border towns of Kwara State to arrest transborder abductors.

Ero LCDA was carved out of the substantive Moba Local Government Area and comprises towns like Igogo, Erinmope, Aaye Oja, Ikosun, Ikun, Isaoye and Irare, shares border with Kwara State, where scores of people had been kidnapped in recent time.

Alebiosu, while speaking with journalists in Igogo Ekiti, headquarters of Ero LCDA, after a security meeting with the traditional rulers, on Monday, said the council had agreed on the constitution of local hunters into vigilance groups in all the component towns to work with communities in Kwara borders to check recurrent transborder kidnappings in the area.

"We held a meeting with our traditional rulers and all the towns had agreed to form local vigilantes that will be drawn from the local hunters to work with the local hunters already in place in towns in Kwara borders like Obbo Ayegunle, Odo Owa, Osi, Ekan Meje and others.

We are all bothered with the ways our people were being kidnapped, but I know we will overcome these. The problem had always been that those being kidnapped in our area, within 10 minutes, the kidnappers would have driven them across border to Kwara State, so this makes things difficult for our security agencies.

"But if we have strong local vigillance groups working with towns in Kwara borders, we will be able to apprehend those behind these dastardly acts and that we shall achieve, because we have mapped out our strategies", he said.
