Edo Records Major Decline In Cultism

The Edo State Special Security Squad, code-named “Operation Flush Out Cultists and Kidnappers”, on Wednesday lauded Governor Monday Okpebholo for his outstanding leadership and achievements as he marks one year in office.

In a statement signed by the squad’s coordinator, Noah Idemudia, the team congratulated the governor on his first anniversary, noting that his administration’s Shine Agenda has significantly improved peace, development, and public safety across the state.

According to the statement, the noticeable decline in cult related activities in Edo State is one of the major indicators of the government’s success in addressing security challenges.

The squad attributed this progress to the governor’s unwavering support to the security agencies and his proactive approach to governance.

“The SHINE Agenda reflects a divine vision, meeting its targets and actively promoting peace and growth within our communities,” Idemudia said. “The decline in cult activism in Edo State is a testament to the governor’s commitment to effective governance.”

The security squad also reaffirmed its partnership with the Okpebholo administration in maintaining law and order through “Operation Flush out Cultists and Kidnappers”, an initiative designed to curb violent crimes and ensure a safer environment for residents.

As Governor Okpebholo celebrates one year in office, security stakeholders continue to commend his government’s focus on community safety, development, and good governance.

“Together, we will continue to safeguard our communities and nurture a safer Edo State for all,” the statement read.
