In his resolve to stem the tide of insecurity in the state, Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State has nominated that Aare Onakakanfo of Yorubaland,  Gani Adams, as the state’s ambassador for the Western Nigeria Security Network, WNSN, known as Amotekun.

The governor also presented a Jack Pick-Up van to Aare Adams as pilot vehicle with three members of the security outfit as part of his security entourage.

Speaking while receiving the van at his Omole Phase 2 residence in Lagos, yesterday, Adams described the gesture as commendable, stressing that the security of the state remains the top most priority of every government.

He also applauded the governor’s courage in ensuring that the state is safe for residents, insisting that Governor Makinde’s efforts at reducing insecurity by allocating N10 million to each of the local governments in the state, had really paid off.

Adams said the office of the Aare Onakakanfo will continue to complement the efforts of the security outfit in reducing the spate of insecurity across the state.

“Security is a sacred responsibility of the Aare Onakakanfo, and for the governor to have recognized that is highly commendable.

“For a very long time now, the office of the Aare Onakakanfo of Yoruba land has been at the vanguard of seeking solution to the various security challenges in the South-West”.
