Amotekun storms dangerous areas avoided by security agents

The advent of the Western Nigeria Security Network, Amotekun when kidnapping, rape, armed robbery and destruction of lives and property had reached its peak in the six states of the South West was received with a wild jubilation by people within and outside the country.
Since it came on board, the initiative which was midwifed by governors of Ogun, Oyo, Osun, Lagos, Ekiti and Ondo States, actually doused the tension that had reached an unspeakable height in the zone.
Farmers had abandoned their means of livelihood while traders, both men and women, were afraid of being robbed or raped by the marauding herders who now see kidnapping as a more lucrative business. The gaunt-looking herders turned killers were everywhere unleashing terror on the people.
