Written by News Desk on February 6, 2026
Osun State Governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke has appealed to the Nigerian police to immediately lift ban on Amotekun operations in the state.
Governor Adeleke made the appeal after a closed door security meeting in osogbo.
Responding to another case of kidnapping at Ora Igbomina area, Governor.Adeleke said Osun state was handicapped in its security response as the Amotekun service has remained sealed by the police with her top officers in detention without trial for several months.
The governor noted that the Amotekun service had developed the containment expertise especially in the rural border areas, submitting that the police’s shutting down of the service operations has created a wide gap being exploited by bandits and criminals.
Governor Adeleke who urged the Nigerian police to charge those detained to court and unseal the service stressed that further delay may endanger the rural population and open the state to further criminal infiltration.
