The Oyo State Police Command has advised parents and guardians not to allow their children to be used to cause trouble in the state.
The command gave this advice via a statement issued by its Public Relations Officer, Adewale Osifeso.
The statement read partly: “As residents of Oyo State join the rest of the nation in celebrating her 64th Independence Anniversary, the Oyo State Police Command, under the constructive leadership of CP Sonubi Ayodele, in concert with other relevant sister services, has emplaced comprehensive security strategies towards a successful anniversary outing.
“In a similar development and in furtherance of the numerous strategic stakeholders’ meetings held with parents, guardians and leaders of different spheres of influence, the Command further advises residents to caution their children, wards and followers against being used as cannon fodders to disrupt the relative tranquillity in the state before, during and after the anniversary celebrations, as those found culpable would face heavy sanctions.
“Furthermore, area commanders across the length and breadth of the command have been directed to personally lead convoy patrols at their respective jurisdictions in a bid to increase the layers of supervision of field operatives under their watch during this period.
“Lastly, the Oyo State Police Command wishes to assert its resolve to work with all patriotic residents of the state while maintaining public order and safety for all.”
