Ogun To Demolish, Prosecute Owners Of Property Used By Criminals – Gov Abiodun

By Augustine Adah

 In order to curtail the growing cases of kidnapping and other crimes in the state, the Ogun State government has  vowed  that it would henceforth not only demolish any property found to be a hideout for criminals but would prosecute  owners of such property.

 Governor Dapo Abiodun also disclosed that, to raise enough funds to adequately fight criminals, his administration was set to re-launch a “Security Trust Fund” to allow individuals and all stakeholders to make voluntary contributions.

He said, “The landlords will also be arrested and handed over for prosecution for harboring criminals, we will consider and treat them as accomplices.

 “We are working forwards strengthening our security apparatus in the state. We are re-organising the Ogun State Security Trust Fund and it will comprise key stakeholders alongside government officials and some of our longstanding retired law enforcement officers.

 “We will be re-launching the State Security Trust Fund. We will ensure that it has the right to cooperate governance so that it can provide the required funding for our law enforcement agencies.”
