“Most recently, we are aware of the killings, the efforts of police to take charge of the situation spurred me to gift it the vehicle.

“Am one chairman that stays within his jurisdiction, so I tried my best to assist and encourage the security agencies, especially the Police.

“We want to urge him to do more, even as he has been doing.

Also speaking, the Divisional Police Officer, SP Adewale Nureni thanked the chairman for fulfilling his promise of providing an operational vehicle for the Division, called on the chairman to look at other areas he can assist the division.
