The Chairman of Bomadi Local Government Area, Delta State, Mr. William Angadi has called on security agencies in the state recently to assist the residents in securing the LGA as security in the area.
He said that security has degenerated in the past one year in Bomadi due to increase in rate of involvement of majority of youths in crimes and criminality.
Angadi said this while narrating the level of insecurity in the council. He fingered that this was not farfetched because of supposed involvement of indigenes in criminal acts.Ā
Against this backdrop, local vigilante was set up in each of the communities in order to guide and coordinate the in and out of people in the communities. Yet, this was not forthcoming.
According to him, the purpose for the vigilante was because they knew strangers who come in and out, as well as members of the communities. Hence it was expected of the vigilante to take necessary actions immediately.
However, Angadi stressed that few weeks ago, some of the criminals were arrested and handed over to the law enforcement agencies.
