Ondo State chapter of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, has condole with Afenifere National Leader, Pa Reuben Fasoranti, over the gruesome murder of his daughter, Mrs Funke Olakunri, by armed bandits.
In a statement entitled ‘Ondo APC condoles with Pa Fasoranti, challenges security agencies on surveillance, and signed by its Director of Publicity, Mr Alex Kalejaye, it said:
“It is our belief that the nonagenarian deserves a better deal from a society he served with all vigour and commitment. Only a divine consolation could tranquilize the devastating effect created by the wicked act.
The State chapter is hopeful that the needless killing of Mrs. Olukunrin would trigger a deeper duty-bound concern among security stakeholders to fish out the agents of the harbingers of this unimaginable pain.
We also expect security agencies to do more in the area of surveillance and intelligence gathering to justify governments’ monthly investments on security concerns. Travelling on our highways should be made safer.
It is also imperative to challenge security agencies to do their utmost in ensuring that other hapless souls languishing in various evil camps are liberated.
We wish to remind all stakeholders that security is pivotal to the overall well-being of any society. Infrastructural development and efforts on economy can only add value if citizens are well secured.
