The Kwara State Government has ordered the closure of schools in four local government areas following escalating banditry attacks, as authorities call for the establishment of a military base to safeguard communities.
Governor [Name] explained that the decision, though temporary, is aimed at protecting students, teachers, and residents in the affected areas. The move comes after a series of violent incidents that have heightened insecurity in the state’s vulnerable communities.
“The safety of our children is paramount,” the governor said, urging federal authorities to deploy military personnel and establish a permanent base to tackle armed bandits and prevent further attacks.
Local residents have welcomed the state’s action, emphasizing the urgent need for enhanced security presence to restore peace and confidence in the affected regions.
Security analysts note that such measures, though disruptive to education, are necessary to curb banditry and ensure the safety of citizens until long-term security strategies are implemented.
The government has assured that schools will reopen once adequate protection and stability are guaranteed.
