Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun, has said that residents in the border areas in the state always live in fear as a result of people who cross in, perpetuate crimes and cross back to their countries.

The governor, therefore, called on officers and men of the Nigeria Immigration Service, to collaborate with other security agencies in the state to check cross-border criminal activities, particularly along borders with the Benin Republic.

“I am sure that hand in hand with the customs, the police, the military and the Department of State Services, you will ensure that you bring this to absolute minimum because most times when these crimes occur, they all cross the border, attack our herders or farmers and run back. He observed that Ogun, because of its large land mass and proximity to four states with an international border with Benin Republic, has a lot of people migrating to the state in search of jobs and leisure.
