Governor Fayemi to sign Amotekun bill on Monday

Barring any last minute change of plans, the Ekiti State Governor, Dr Kayode Fayemi will on Monday sign into law the bill for the establishment of Ekiti Security Network Agency and Amotekun Corps.

This was contained in a statement signed and made available to newsmen in Ado-Ekiti on Friday by the Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Mr. Yinka Oyebode.

The bill, awaiting Governor Fayemi’s assent, was passed by Ekiti State House of Assembly into law on February 14 after passing through normal legislative procedures including the first and second reading as well as public hearing.

One of the objectives of the bill is to create a security network that would collaborate with and assist the Police and other security agencies in maintaining law and order within the state by making available relevant information on crime.

According to the statement, the event will take place at the Jibowu Hall, Government House, Ado-Ekiti, by 11.00am.
