“The early morning peaceful arrest confirms our position on how effective local initiative can do well in homeland security.
“We were not shocked that but for the intervention by the leadership in Oyo State, the Police would have gone after the OPC boys instead of taking the criminal from them and do the needful.

On February 27, OPC had arrested the second-in-command to the alleged dreaded kidnapper, one Isiaka Muhammadu.
