In response to escalating security challenges in the Oworonshoki area of Kosofe Local Government, community leader Omoba Awofeso Rasheed has issued a compelling appeal to residents. Speaking during a session with the Kosofe Post on Sunday under the theme “Tell us what’s happening around your Communities,” Omoba Rasheed stressed the need for embracing community policing as a collective effort.
Highlighting the prevalent security challenges, particularly as the “ember months” approach, Omoba Rasheed expressed concern over the reported surge in theft of vehicles, pilferage of valuables, and vandalization of vehicles by burglars. He emphasized the urgency of addressing these issues to ensure the safety and well-being of residents.
“In the recent weeks, Ojota community witnessed a security breach through killings by a cult group,” he revealed, underscoring the gravity of the situation.
Omoba Rasheed urged constituents to actively participate in community policing initiatives, contribute to security levies, and collaborate closely with law enforcement agencies. He emphasized the importance of unity in tackling criminal acts and creating a safer environment for everyone.
