Kogi State Governor, Ahmed Usman Ododo, has issued a strong and decisive warning to criminal elements after credible intelligence revealed that several bandit commanders have recently relocated into parts of the state.

According to him, the state is already activating a proactive and comprehensive security response to flush out the criminals before they gain any foothold.
“We Will Take the Fight to Them” Ododo declared.
In his words, “Bandit commanders have relocated to Kogi State. We will not wait for them to attack us. We are going to take the fight to them. We are not going to bow to any criminal and we are not going to negotiate with them.”
The governor emphasized that security agencies across the state have been placed on high alert, with coordinated operations now underway in collaboration with local vigilante groups and community structures.
He described Kogi as a fortress of peace that will not be allowed to slip into the hands of criminal gangs fleeing crackdown in neighbouring states.
