The Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun, has issued a marching order to the police command in the state, to go after the killers of a couple, Kehinde and Bukola Fatinoye, who were killed and their house set ablaze on New Year day by suspected assassins.

Penpushing reports that Abiodun gave the order in a statement on Wednesday by his Chief Press Secretary, Kunle Somorin, describing the incident as unfortunate and heart-breaking, vowing that his administration would not hesitate to deploy resources with the view of unmasking persons behind the dastard act.

The statement emphasized that the Governor declared that the killers who equally kidnapped the couple’s son and threw him inside the river, would not go unpunished, hence, the police must go after them and apprehend them.

Penpushing further reports that Abiodun pointed out that the incident shocked him, particularly when efforts had been geared by his administration towards strengthening the security architecture within the state.

The Governor while expressing his sympathy to the families of the deceased, however, assured them that the murder would be unravelled and persons responsible would be brought to justice, stressing that no effort would be spared in bringing the perpetrators of the heinous crime to book.

“My heart goes out to the families of Kehinde and Bukola Fatinoye. The incident indeed shocked me, as it was unfortunate and tragic. I can imagine the pains the families would be going through at this period when everyone is still basking in euphoria of the New Year’, he said.

“This is a grievous crime, no doubt. I have directed the Commissioner of Police to ensure that everything is done in order to arrest the people behind the dastard act. I assure you that the perpetrators will not go unpunished. Such an heinous crime should not go without making the people responsible face the full wrath of the law’, Abiodun added.

“Though, our administration had since strengthened the security architecture in the state, we shall continue to provide logistics to the security agencies in order to make our state the safest to live, work and play. Let me reiterate that no effort will be spared to ensure security of lives and property of our people”, the governor stated.
