The Corps Commander of the Osun Amotekun Corps, Adekunle Omoyele, has affirmed that the security outfit is fully operational and firmly grounded in the law establishing it, declaring its readiness to confront insecurity across the state.
The Public Relations Officer of Osun Amotekun Corps, Yusuf Idowu, in a statement on Sunday, noted that Omoyele made the affirmation while speaking to newsmen in Osogbo.
The statement said the Amotekun commander while addressing concerns surrounding internal challenges that affected the corps in the past year, clarified that all issues have been amicably resolved, emphasising that the organisation remains intact, stable, and focused on its mandate.
“Osun Amotekun is back by the law that established it, and we are fully ready to confront insecurity. The misunderstandings we experienced have been resolved. There is no hindrance to our operations.
“There’s no way two brothers won’t have disagreements. Even friends have confrontations, but they resolve them. What we had was a minor misunderstanding, and it has been settled. Everything is now normal, and we are carrying out our duties lawfully and without interruption.”
Omoyele further noted that recent security challenges in neighbouring states, particularly attacks by bandits, have served as a wake-up call for the corps.
According to him, the incidents have prompted Osun Amotekun to reinforce its preparedness and strengthen its operational strategies against any potential threats.
He also called on residents of Osun State to remain vigilant and proactive in supporting security efforts.
“We urge citizens to stay security-conscious and to look out for one another. Community cooperation is vital in maintaining peace and safety,” he said.
