Fresh Banditry: Oyo APC Tackles Makinde Over Alleged Missing Surveillance Aircraft

The gunmen, according to reliable sources, operated for more than an hour without being repelled as there was no surveillance activity in the same axis where Gov. Makinde located the Base Station for the two security aircrafts which the State government claimed to have received and deployed for security surveillance purposes recently.

In a statement issued on Monday and made available to journalists in Ibadan by its Publicity Secretary, Olawale Sadare, Oyo APC described Gov. Makinde’s incessant criticism of President Bola Tinubu’s economic reforms as an exhibition of poor knowledge of economic management, human capacity development and nation building.

“Since the day Gov. Makinde celebrated the purported delivery of the two aircrafts, nothing has either been heard or felt about their deployment to survey the airspace in the state. Sad enough, the same Igbeti where the Base Station for the aircrafts was reportedly situated came under heavy attacks for more than an hour and there was no surveillance aircrafts to track the attackers and possibly repel them. Therefore, it is safe to say that the whole story about security surveillance aircrafts is another scam.” Sadare said.
