After the tragic murder of retired Major Joseph Ajayi by suspected kidnappers in Odo-Ape, Kogi State Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo swiftly visited the grieving community. Instead of sending representatives, he chose to console the bereaved family personally, assuring them they were not alone.
Moreover, Ododo condemned those aiding criminals and vowed to bring informants and kidnappers to justice.
Consequently, he commissioned a modern security outpost in the area to boost safety and rapid response. Already, some suspects have been arrested.
Ultimately, Ododo’s actions show leadership that combines compassion with decisive action.
