As a means to tackle kidnapping and acts of criminality, the leadership of Akinyele Local Government Area of Oyo State has banned night vigils and other religious activities conducted late in the night.
The decision was contained in a memo with number, AKLG/1541/T3/23, dated 27th June 2024, addressed to the Chairman, Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Akinyele Local Government Area.
The directive was the resolution of an emergency meeting of the Joint Peace and Security Committee of the Local Government Area and its two Local Council Development Areas (LCDAs) convened by the Chairman of the local government, Mr Wole Akinleye.
The meeting also had in attendance the Akinyele traditional ruler, community leaders, security agencies, and the CAN representatives in attendance.
The meeting had observed that people at large gatherings, especially those held at night, had become soft targets for kidnappers, hoodlums, and persons with criminal intents.
Affirming the decision to the Nigerian Tribune, the local government chairman, Wole Akinleye, said the decision got the consent of the CAN and security agencies that banning vigils would strengthen the task of fighting insecurity in the local government area.
