The Ekiti state government has kicked off the fencing of public schools in the state as a precautionary measure following the increasing number of abduction cases in the country. The governor said the fences would be intensified to ensure maximum security in schools in the state in addition to deployment of more security personnel across strategic locations in the state to enhance the security of lives and property.

The governor, who spoke on Tuesday, in a radio and television programme tagged ‘Media chat’, said, “The government of Ekiti State, in efforts to boost security, has ensured that primary and secondary schools across the 16 local government areas of the state are adequately protected.

“In doing so, school fencing projects are ongoing. Also, the government has improved on security surveillance across the state, deploying more personnel to strategic locations for effective coverage.” He further said the growing insecurity in the country had made the creation of state police a necessity.
