Kwara Govt Advises Residents to Limit Movement Amid Crackdown on Kidnap Hideouts
The Kwara State Government has issued a public advisory urging residents particularly those in Ekiti, Ifelodun, Isin, Oke-Ero, and Irepodun Local Government Areas to remain vigilant and limit outdoor activities amid intensified security operations targeting kidnappers' hideouts.
This follows coordinated raids by combined security forces in border communities between Kwara and Kogi States, where criminal networks are believed to have been operating with relative impunity.
As operations escalate, authorities warn that fleeing suspects could pose a threat to civilians in nearby towns and villages.
In a statement released by Commissioner for Communications Bolanle Olukoju, the government said: "We urge people to be very vigilant and limit their movements to only very necessary routines. That is to avoid being caught unawares as the kidnappers are fleeing their hideouts. We do not want law-abiding citizens to be affected."
She said the government regrets the temporary inconveniences the limited movement may cause in the nearby areas.
"We commend the security forces for the renewed efforts to rout out the criminals, and charge them to continue until they are totally neutralised and flushed out of our forests," she added.
