Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun State has directed security agencies in the State to rid Sagamu and its environs of the menace of cultists and cult-related activities in the state.

Governor Abiodun in a statement through his Chief Press Secretary, Lekan Adeniran said the directive became necessary in the wake of renewed clashes among rival cult gangs in the town at the weekend, raising tension and panic among residents of the town.

The Governor, who regretted the avoidable loss of innocent lives and wanton destruction of properties by the hoodlums, ordered the security agencies to deal ruthlessly and decisively with those disturbing the peace of the town.

Reiterating the state government’s zero tolerance to acts of brigandage and lawlessness, Governor Abiodun warned that those responsible for the current crisis would find themselves to blame.

The governor noted that the new security approach would be implemented in collaboration with the traditional institution, community and religious leaders, youth groups as well as other critical stakeholders.

He appealed to the people to provide adequate and useful information to security agents for prompt response to prevent future occurrences.
