TRADITIONAL RULERS ALLEGEDLY AIDING MILITANT/CRIMINAL ATTACKS



The Nigerian police have accused traditional rulers and chiefs in Ikorodu of working with criminals in their communities to unleash terror on residents.

Commissioner of Police in Lagos State Fatai Owoseni said on Sunday at a meeting with the traditional rulers that the worsening cases of violence in Ikorodu is being sponsored by Baales in the area.

”They allow militants to build houses harbouring criminals in the creeks,” he said.The Lagos state police boss urged the royal fathers to call their chiefs to order. He added that the meeting was convened to tell the traditional rulers that their ”silent conspiracy will no longer be tolerated.”

”Traditional rulers cannot tell me they don’t know who is who in their domain; all communities are advised to organise their local vigilantes,” Owoseni said.

According to him, most kidnappings, killings and other violent crimes in Lagos take place in Ikorodu area and called on communities to partner the security management.
