Ilorin Union Wants Police To Enforce Anti-liquor Laws
The Ilorin Emirate Descendants Progressive Union (IEDPU) has urged the Kwara State Police Command to ensure total enforcement of the laws against sale and consumption of alcohol, pool betting and related offences in prohibited parts of Ilorin, the state capital.
The national president of the union, Alhaji AbdulMumini AbdulMalik, made the call during the consultative meeting held between the Police Command and community leaders at the command's headquarters in Ilorin.
AbdulMalik decried the mindless way in which the laws are being violated across the city of Ilorin, saying that it is the responsibility of the police to enforce the laws for sanity to reign.
He added that most of the crimes and criminality being perpetrated across the city were encouraged by alcohol and drug addictions.
AbdulMalik, however, thanked the police for the relentless war being waged against criminals since the present commissioner of police, Victor Olaiya assumed office last year.
He assured the command of the readiness of the IEDPU and the community at large to assist the police in ensuring that peace and orderliness prevail not only in Ilorin, but the state in general.
Earlier, the commissioner of police, Kwara State Command, Victor Olaiya, had said that the meeting was organised to seek the support of the leaders of various communities in crime prevention and control.
He urged IEDPU and the traditional chiefs and leaders of Ilorin Emirate as well as other stakeholders to assist the police in curbing crimes and criminality, particularly the resurgence of cult killings.
