POLICE VOW TO FISH OUT CULPRITS BEHIND THE ATTACK OF KING'S PALACE


The Assistant Inspector-General of Police (AIG) in charge of Zone 11, Agboola Oshodi-Glover, has vowed that the five gunmen who shot sporadically at the palace of the Olubadan, Oba Saliu Adetunji would be brought to justice.

The incident occurred on Monday during the installation of Baales (village heads).

The Police boss, who is in charge of Oyo, Osun and Ondo states, added that security will be beefed up around the palace.

Oshodi-Glover said this on Tuesday while playing a courtesy visit on the Olubadan in the company of the Oyo State Commissioner of Police, Abiodun Odude and other top police officers in the state.

He regretted that the police had no hint of the attack as that would have enabled it stop it from happening.

"Definitely, security will be beefed up around the palace and more importantly, those miscreants who did that will be fished out and will be taken to court for proper justice to take its cause.

"I don't know any news behind the news on this matter. But we are going to investigate what happened. If we knew the news behind the news, the gunmen would not even get close to the palace. Now that we have known, we would do everything possible and no stone would be left unturned," he said.

Alert

While assuring the people of the state that the police are high on alert to ensure the safety of lives and property, the police boss appealed to the people who have information on the identity of the unidentified gunmen to make same available to the police so as to fast track getting to the root of the matter.

"The policemen are on high alert and citizens should be rest assured that they are safe. We are also calling on the citizens, who saw what happened and who have information to let the police have them towards helping us in getting into the root of all these.

"The steps the police are taking will make all and sundry to be happy. The Yoruba tradition must be respected and respect must be accorded to the people and institutions that deserve it. The hoodlums are hereby warned to desist from unruly behaviour. Those that perpetrated the invasion, we are going to make sure that we get them," Oshodi-Glover assured.

While addressing the visitor, the monarch expressed his happiness at the visit and the decision of the police boss to do an on the spot assessment of the situation.
