A lawmaker representing Iwajowa State Constituency in the Oyo State House of Assembly, Anthony Ogunsola, has called for a decisive security crackdown following the deadly ambush on the National Park Office at Oloka Village, Orire LG Area. I am calling on our security agencies to move with full force, track these elements to their dens, and crush them decisively. Our council area is a gateway, sharing a boundary with the Ayegun/Wasinmi border community that links Nigeria with the Republic of Benin. Security is a shared responsibility; I urge our people to provide the intelligence needed to smoke out these perpetrators. The mention of Ayegun/Wasinmi is critical because it is a known international transit point between Nigeria and the Republic of Benin.
