Sunday Igboho Welcomes 20,000 Volunteers to Security Network

Sunday Igboho announced that over 20,000 volunteers have joined the Iru Ekun Security Network in Oyo, aimed at improving community security and addressing criminality in Yorubaland, Kwara, and Niger states. This initiative follows similar launches in Osun, Ekiti, Lagos, Ogun, and Ondo states.

Igboho's media office stated that the security outfit has collaborated with the Nigerian Army, Nigeria Police Force, and the Department of State Service to combat abductions, killings, and other forms of insecurity in the South-West region. Igboho praised the volunteers' turnout, indicating a strong community interest in ensuring safety regardless of tribal, religious, or political affiliations.

He mentioned that his recent trip to Abuja was to discuss the official responsibilities of Iru Ekun and to enhance security measures in the South West, emphasizing the organization's roots in traditional leadership, particularly with the Olubadan of Ibadanland. Igboho also expressed gratitude to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for facilitating interactions among Iru Ekun members.
