In a significant move to enhance security across Osun State, Governor Ademola Adeleke presided over the passing-out parade of 1,150 newly trained Amotekun cadets. The ceremony took place at the NYSC Orientation Camp in Ede, marking a pivotal step in the state's commitment to safeguarding its residents.
Addressing the fresh recruits, Governor Adeleke emphasized the critical importance of integrity and discipline in their forthcoming duties. He stated, "You must be dedicated anti-crime fighters. Avoid corruption and other conducts that violate the law. You are expected to be good ambassadors of the service in your daily operations."
The governor highlighted his administration's proactive measures to restructure and strengthen the Amotekun Corps. These initiatives include appointing experienced leadership, providing a suitable operational headquarters, and implementing comprehensive reforms aimed at enhancing the corps' effectiveness. Governor Adeleke assured that the administration is committed to equipping the corps with necessary operational tools, stating, "Your requests for vehicles, bikes, and other operational equipment will be looked into immediately."
The newly inducted cadets underwent an intensive three-week training program that commenced on March 10, 2025. This rigorous training was designed to equip them with the skills and knowledge required to effectively tackle security challenges within the state.
This development underscores the Osun State Government's unwavering commitment to enhancing its security infrastructure and addressing emerging challenges in the fight against crime and insecurity.
