The government of Oyo State under the governor of the State, Engr Oluwaseyi Makinde has today signed the State Security Network Agency (Amotekun) Bill, 2020 into law.

According to the Governor, Engr Oluwaseyi Makinde;

"It's been a long and torturous journey which started as far back as July 2019.

Today, history has been made as Oyo State joins other Southwest States to have the Amotekun law in force.

I stated they the Amotekun Corps is not a replacement for our traditional security agencies. It is to complement the efforts of the Federal Security Agencies who are stretched to the limit as a result of pockets of insecurity all over Nigeria.

I Seized the opportunity to thank put traditional security agencies for the Work they are doing despite budgetary, operational and personnel deficits. And restated that the Amotekun Corps will meet some of these gaps which will help secure Oyo State better."
