In a bid to bolster security and ensure the safety of lives and property, the Ota Area Command of the Nigeria Police Force in Ogun State has launched a robust Joint Patrol operation. This initiative aims to rid the area of criminal elements, ensuring a crime-free environment during and after the festive season.
The “Sting Operation” brings together a strategic synergy of key security agencies, including the Nigeria Police Force, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Nigerian Navy, Nigerian Army, and other relevant stakeholders. This formidable coalition has vowed to root out criminals and disrupt their activities, leaving no room for lawbreakers to operate in Ota and its environs.
Speaking on the operation, the Area Commander of Ota, ACP Oladele Bamidele Oluwashola, emphasized a zero-tolerance stance on crime. She issued a stern warning to criminal elements, declaring that anyone found engaging in unlawful activities will face the full weight of the law.
“There will be no hiding place for hoodlums or criminals in Ota and Ogun State. Our goal is to secure our communities and restore public confidence,” ACP Oluwashola stated.
The Joint Patrol underscores the commitment of the Ota Area Command and its allied security agencies to fostering a safe and peaceful environment for residents and visitors alike, especially during the Yuletide season.
Residents are urged to cooperate with security personnel, remain vigilant, and report any suspicious activities promptly to aid the operation’s success.
