The Ogun State Police Command has offered a one-month amnesty for cultists in the state, providing them with an opportunity to renounce their involvement in various cult groups and surrender all arms and ammunition in their custody.
The newly appointed Commissioner of Police, Abiodun Alamutu, disclosed this at the Eleweran Headquarters of the command.
Alamutu explained that the motive behind the amnesty was to address the issue of individuals being deceived and trapped into cultism without fully understanding the consequences.
He further said that once the amnesty period concludes, the command will take decisive action against both known and unknown cultists who continue to engage in criminal activities within the state.
His words: “However, we are aware that some people were lured into cultism without knowing the implication, and so they got trapped.
“The Command has opened a window of amnesty to such people. So, they should renounce their membership of these groups and surrender all arms and ammunition in their custody.
“They have a period of one month to do that. After the period of one month from today 11th July 2023, there is going to be a total clamp down on all known and unknown cultists who are perpetrating heinous crimes in the State.
Furthermore, the commissioner, emphasized that under his leadership, the police force would not stand idly by watching law-abiding citizens and residents of Ogun State suffer due to the actions of a few unscrupulous individuals.
Alamutu, however stated that criminals in the state have two choices: to turn over a new leaf or relocate elsewhere. He warned that failure to choose either option would result in their inevitable downfall.
“They (the Criminals) have only two options, its either they turn up a new leaf or relocate from this State. Failure to choose any of these two options will lead them to meet their waterloo.”
