The Oyo State Commissioner for Youth and Sports Development, Seun Fakorede, says the Nigerian Army has arrested soldiers who flogged a woman for ‘indecent dressing’ and shaved youths for ‘wearing improper hairstyles’.
He made this known in a series of tweets on Monday.
Fakorede assured Oyo residents to go about their daily business and activities without fear.
He tweeted, “My ears are full of news of the unlawful activities of some soldiers of the Nigerian Army, over the weekend.
“I have immediately reached out to the Commandant of the Operation Burst and I’ve been assured that the men involved in this distasteful operation have been arrested and taken to the barracks — they will be dealt with accordingly.
This will not repeat itself again in Oyo State.
“Please, kindly go about your daily business and activities without fear. Thank you.”
