The Ondo State Security Network Agency, otherwise known as Amotekun Corps, has foiled the plot by a seven-man gang of suspected criminals to rob three banks in the state during the week.

The commander of the corps, Adetunji Adeleye, who disclosed this yesterday while parading no fewer than 37 suspects involved in various crimes across the state, stressed that six members of the gang came into the state from Delta State to perpetrate the crime.

The commander stated that one of the gang members had tried luring a staff of the supermarket into the operation, but turned it down, after which he informed his boss about the plot. Former President Goodluck Jonathan has led the West African Elders Forum to Senegal on a mediation mission ahead of the country’s presidential election tomorrow.

Investments and development in Abia State would have accelerated far beyond its current level but for poor infrastructure, including roads, power and insecurity, which have restrained investors over the years, Governor Alex Otti of the Labour Party has said. Surveyors under the aegis of the Association of Private Practicing Surveyors of Nigeria , a subgroup of Nigeria Institution of Surveyors , have called on the Federal Government to ensure that contractors respect the Local Content Act by engaging Nigerian professionals in their works.
