While commending the cessation of hostilities so far, the Governor, however, expressed dissatisfaction with reports of another killing, for which the police have made an arrest. He warned that “anybody or group of persons found or caught masterminding any violent act will face the full consequences.”
Governor Adeleke tasked the joint security task force with maintaining their usual 24-hour surveillance to ensure zero tolerance for any act of lawlessness.
