The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ondo State has applauded Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu’s directive on installing CCTV cameras in the state.
The commendation comes after the governor ordered all operators and owners of public facilities in the state to install monitoring devices on their premises.
According to him, the directive will help combat crimes across the state.
In a statement issued by Mr. Ade Adetimehin, the state party chairman on Sunday, he assured the Ondo people that the governor was committed to the security of lives and properties.
“Gov. Oluwarotimi Akeredolu’s government remains resolute on the issue of security in the state and will redouble its efforts in providing adequate security for the citizens of the state.
“This is notwithstanding the recent hiccup in our security system that led to the loss of several lives in the Owo attack.
“We are asking fellow citizens to be their brothers’ keepers during this festive period by reporting any suspicious individuals and criminal activities they observe around them to the law enforcement agencies.
“While we are wishing all Muslims in Ondo State a happy Eid-el Kabir celebration.
“We urge everyone to adhere strictly to law and order and remain peaceful throughout the holiday celebration,” he said.
