The Minister was on official visit to the facility for inspection on Monday.

He declared that Custodial Centres across the nation are red zones and anyone attempting to attack the facility should be shot at sight.

The Minister urged security agents guarding prison facility to always be on red alert, saying that it is a red zone, dangerous zone, and such attackers must not be alive to tell the story.

“This is a red zone, dangerous zone. Whoever attempts to breach the facility is already dead. He must not live to tell the story.

He insisted that attackers must not just be injured, but got killed stressing that it is a total embodiment of the state to guarantee the security of the people.”

During the tour, Aregbesola also ordered the demolition of shops and business centres within and around the Agodi custodial facility.

He, however, assured personnel of NCoS that government would do its best in ensuring that their welfare is a top priority as a way of ensuring effective service delivery.

“We will do our best on your welfare to ensure effective service. I must commend your work for not recording any case of COVID-19 in your facility. You must be effective in preventing the penetration of this facility.

“You must have the capacity to repel viciously any attempt to attack or invade this facility and an attempt must remain an attempt.”
