All these I shall strive hard to achieve, especially with the support of team-spirited Officers and Men I met in the Command, together with the cooperation of other security agencies in the state and stakeholders such as the traditional rulers, religious leaders, public spirited associations, students and youth leaders etc; as security is a collective responsibility.
I have no doubt that, together we shall fight all criminal elements in the State to a standstill and Osun State will not be a safe haven for criminal to breed.
On arrival, I received briefings on the Security State of the Command, especially with respect to pockets of prevalent crimes such as: Cultism, Rape/Defilement, Land Grabbing, Communal clashes etc., which I believe are surmountable with determined support of the good people of the State and you as the Fourth Estate of the Realm.
To this end, I shall provide credible leadership that is professional, responsive and accountable to the people through intelligence-led, community-oriented, and robust visibility policing strategies. As such and as a veritable point to launch my strategy, I have directed all formations to draw up action plans to actualize this mission that will instantly arrest prevalent crimes in their areas to the barest minimum.
We shall be proactive in our policing by embarking on constant raiding of black spots/criminal hideouts, based on intelligence at our disposal.
This will be immediately followed by a tour of the formations for on the ground/spot assessment of every locality within the state to ascertain their peculiarities, as I lead this mission of keeping the state safe, from the front.
