Oyo Govt Reads the Riot Act to Vandals

Oyo State Government has declared war on those who allegedly vandalised some of the newly constructed Model Schools in the state.

The Executive Chairman, Oyo State Universal Basic Education Board, Dr. Nureni Aderemi Adeniran, who stated this in Ibadan, said government would treat them as saboteurs, who maliciously damage government properties.

Speaking on the destruction of properties at a new Model School completed by the State Government in Ibadan, Dr Adeniran said that when caught, perpetrators of such acts would be punished with extreme severity regardless of their political affinity.

While he affirmed that the State Government through the Board would not take with levity vandalism of any of its properties built for the good use of pupils, called on community leaders to commit themselves into securing such properties built within their communities.

He promised that government would carry out all necessary inquiries into what led to the destruction of items in the said school, saying the State Government was not a toothless dog that would not bite offenders.
