Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, has directed the immediate revitalisation of the Safe School Initiative following recent school kidnappings in neighbouring Oyo State.
The directive was contained in a statement issued on Sunday by the governor’s spokesperson, Olawale Rasheed.
According to the statement, Adeleke ordered the Ministry of Education and other relevant government and security agencies to immediately strengthen the initiative as a precaution against a possible spillover of the attacks into Osun State.
“The governor additionally directed immediate beefing up of intelligence gathering, especially around schools located in border areas and remote sections of the state.
