The acting coordinator of the youths, Comrade Akinyemi Akintunde who led the delegation appreciated the CDC chairman for his encouragement, advice and inspirational words.

Akintunde urges youth to be security conscious

Meanwhile, Comrade Akinyemi Akintunde has urged youths to be security conscious and join hands in fighting crimes in the community.

According to him: “I want youth to be resolute and firm in fighting crimes.

“Should in-case you get an information of any criminal activities, armed robbery, breakdown of properties or unlawful activities, please don't hesitate to call security, executive of NYCN, CDC, PCRC in your area. But ascertain the information properly, to avoid any misinformation.

“Similarly, I want to seize this opportunity to commend the proactive and progressive Council Chairman of Ejigbo LCDA, Hon. Monsuru Oloyede Bello (OBE) for his prompt action by setting-up security task-force and led them personally to all nooks and crannies of hoodlums based. He demolished their abodes and even arrested some. All hands must be on deck in fighting crimes in our environment.”
