Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, has approved the recruitment of additional 500 men for the state’s Western Nigeria Security Network (WNSN), code-named Amotekun Corps.

Makinde disclosed this, at the weekend, during a security meeting with local council chairmen, vice chairmen, heads of security agencies, traditional rulers and other stakeholders at the House of Chiefs Secretariat in Ibadan. He said the measure was to enhance security of life and property in the state.

He said: “Security is everyone’s business and if we all co-operate, we will have a safer and more secured environment. “This meeting is aimed at getting the situation report from various quarters on security, as well as to dialogue on what to do as stakeholders and fine-tune necessary steps. This will help government to put necessary machinery in place for people to sleep with their two eyes closed.
