Commander of the 32 Artillery Brigade, Nigerian Army (NA), Brigadier General Justin Ifeanyi, has assured the Ondo State Security Network Agency, otherwise known as Amotekun Corps, of robust synergy.

According to the Brigadier General, who resumed command at the artillery a few days ago while on a courtesy visit to the headquarters of the corps, the successes in battling criminality in the state were due to actionable information provided by operatives of Amotekun.

Ifeanyi stressed that the information was provided because of the existing synergy among security agencies in the state.

The 32nd Artillery Commander said it was incumbent on him as the new Commander in Ondo State to introduce himself to know the people he would be working with.

He said, “From what I was told, the Army has been working in synergy, particularly at the local level, with your operatives. Most of your men are infused in all the local government areas. They have been passing actionable information.

“We want the already established synergy to continue, and we like to move it to the next level. We will try and cooperate and work with your people to curtail crime. The prevalent crime is kidnapping.”
