  BANDITS STRIKE CHURCH IN KWARA: WORSHIPPERS ABDUCTED IN SHOCKING ATTACK Chaos erupted in Omugo community, Ifelodun LGA, Kwara State, as armed bandits stormed an ECWA Church during Sunday morning service, abducting worshippers and sending the congregation fleeing in terror. Sources report that at least seven people were kidnapped before security forces could intervene. In a swift and coordinated response, joint security operatives, including forest guards and local vigilantes, rescued three victims, though several remain in captivity. Bolanle Olukoju, Kwara State Commissioner for Communications, condemned the brazen attack, describing it as “cowardly and unacceptable,” and praised the rapid action of security agencies. She confirmed that efforts are ongoing to free the remaining abductees and bring the perpetrators to justice.  The incident follows earlier intelligence warnings of potential coordinated attacks in Kwara South, prompting deployment of military, paramilitary, an...

 GOV. ALIA ENDORSES STATE POLICE, SAYS GOVERNORS MUST CONTROL SECURITY STRUCTURE 


Governor Hyacinth Alia has declared Benue State’s full support for the establishment of state police, stressing that governors must have operational control of security structures to effectively safeguard their states.


Alia made the position known on Tuesday during the flag-off of a six-day training for 300 personnel of the Benue State Civil Protection Guards (BSCPGs). The exercise, organised by the The Kukah Centre in collaboration with the state government, is holding at the Firing Range in Ikpayongo, Gwer-East Local Government Area.


Represented by his deputy, Sam Ode, the governor described state policing as “an idea whose time has come,” noting that ongoing constitutional reforms would pave the way for its implementation.


He said the move aligns with efforts by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to establish a legal framework for decentralised policing, describing it as a necessary devolution of powers in a federal system.


Alia also dismissed concerns that state police could be misused for political purposes, assuring that proper legal safeguards would prevent abuse.


Earlier, the Special Adviser on Security and Internal Affairs, Joseph Har, disclosed that the state had already trained 5,000 personnel, positioning Benue as a frontrunner in community-based security.


“We are a federating nation, and federating units should have self-determination on security,” Alia said, insisting that the role of governors as chief security officers must go beyond theory.


Project Manager at the Kukah Centre, Terseer Bamber, added that the training would strengthen operational capacity and ensure personnel act within constitutional limits.


“At the end of the exercise, we expect a more resilient force capable of supporting conventional security agencies,” he said.
