The Ogun State Security Network Agency, also known as the Amotekun Corps, recruits 690 new members in Ogun.

The Batch D Passing Out Parade Ceremony, held recently, signaled the successful completion of the trainees’ rigorous training program.

The new recruits, who have undergone extensive training in various aspects of security and law enforcement, are now ready to join the ranks of the Amotekun Corps.

Their induction into the corps is expected to bolster the state’s security apparatus and enhance the safety of residents.

The Amotekun Corps, established to complement the efforts of traditional security agencies, has been instrumental in maintaining law and order in Ogun State.

The corps’ focus on community policing and intelligence gathering has yielded positive results, with a noticeable reduction in crime rates in various parts of the state.

The graduation ceremony was attended by top Government officials, security chiefs, and other stakeholders in South West, Nigeria.
