Osun State governor, Senator Ademola Adeleke, on Wednesday directed the immediate establishment of three holding camps for displaced victims affected by the recent communal clashes involving Ifon, Ilobu, and Erin Osun towns.

The development followed the implementation of his earlier directive for the distribution of food and relief materials to the displaced people through the palaces of each troubled town.

This was contained in a statement signed by Adeleke’s spokesperson, Mr. Olawale Rasheed.

According to the statement, “Now that the distribution of food and relief materials has commenced, I have directed the state emergency agency to proceed to set up camps for displaced people.

“Each town is to have a camp, probably their town halls or any place of their choice. Security agencies are to screen displaced people for transportation to the camps.

“The emergency agency will be providing food materials and accessories for the displaced people while the situation normalizes. The emergency agency has also reached out to NEMA for further support,” Adeleke was quoted to have said.

Meanwhile, the governor has commended security agencies for promptly implementing his directive for the grilling and prosecution of key ringleaders in the communal crisis.

“All the culprits must be brought to book. There must be accountability. I expect suspects to be charged to court as soon as possible,” Adeleke stated.

The 24-hour curfew continues amidst further tightening of security surveillance in the towns.
