He emphasized that the Homeland Security Law, recently signed by the governor, has bolstered security operations in the state.
Under this law, any property found to be involved in criminal activities will not only be demolished but also seized by the state government.
A source at the scene noted that many of the hotel’s rooms were in disrepair, with spent bullet casings found in some of the rooms.
The hotel has now been demolished as part of the enforcement of the Homeland Security Law.
Ken Emeakyi, the Special Adviser to Governor Soludo on Community Security, stated that the state government is committed to sustained efforts in fighting crime and criminality, not just a one-time action.
He urged the public to support the fight against crime and report any suspicious activities in their communities.
