The Commissioner of Oyo State Police Command, Adebowale Williams, says closed-circuit television would be used in the state to monitor the forthcoming general elections.
Williams disclosed this in his goodwill message at the South-West stakeholders’ roundtable on the 2023 general elections, which was organised by the Centre for Transparency Advocacy and held at the Koltol Hotel in Ibadan.
Represented by the Deputy Commissioner of Police, Taiwo Kasum, Williams said he was confident that the elections would hold in a peaceful atmosphere.
“As a leading agency, the police are fully ready to ensure free, fair, and credible elections. We are ready to work with other stakeholders and sister agencies to achieve this. In Oyo State, we have CCTV cameras that have been mounted in some strategic locations, and this will go a long way in assisting us in intelligence gathering.”
