Adeleke specified that personnel will be stationed at various locations including worship centers, marketplaces, recreational spots, critical infrastructure, and identified flashpoints within the state.

Adeleke quoted Agboola as saying, “NSCDC would collaborate with other sister agencies to provide adequate security in Osun State.”
He also urged personnel who have been deployed for the assignment to be civil, but firm in the discharge of their duties.
