A special task force has convened to address the growing concern of bandits’ influx in the South-West region of Nigeria. The task force meeting comes as the police and Amotekun, a regional security outfit, tighten the region’s
boundaries to prevent further incursions. The police and Amotekun have intensified their efforts to secure the region’s borders, with a focus on preventing the influx of bandits and other criminal elements.
This move is aimed at safeguarding the lives and properties of residents in the South-West region. The task force meeting brings together stakeholders from various security agencies, including the police, Amotekun, and other regional security outfits.
The meeting aims to develop a comprehensive strategy to address the bandits’ influx and ensure the security of the region. Experts emphasize the need to address the root causes of the bandits’ influx, including poverty, unemployment, and lack of access to education and healthcare.
By tackling these underlying issues, the region can reduce the appeal of criminal activities and create a more secure environment for all residents. The Nigerian government has reaffirmed its commitment to ensuring the security of all citizens, regardless of their
geographical location. The government has pledged to provide the necessary resources and support to security agencies to combat the bandits’ influx and other security challenges facing the country.
