*I visit my town regularly, media report suggesting otherwise is misleading - Boroffice*

The Deputy Majority Leader of the Senate, Prof. Ajayi Boroffice has said he visits his hometown, Oka - Akoko in Ondo State regularly while dismissing media report suggesting otherwise as utterly misleading.

The attention of the media bureau of Prof. Ajayi Boroffice has been drawn to a media report suggesting the senator can no longer travel to his hometown in Ondo State because of kidnappers.

The said media report is utterly misleading as it did not reflect the crux, essence and meaning of what the senator said when he visited the Akure residence of Pa Reuben Fasoranti whose daughter was killed by gunmen. The misleading report seems more like offside interpretation and off-key inference.

Instructively the senator visited his hometown recently and he will visit his hometown by this weekend and next week to attend scheduled political engagements and community activities. Thus, the suggestion that he can no longer travel to his hometown does not represent the truth.

Meanwhile, it should be noted that when Senator Ajayi Boroffice spoke with reporters in Akure, he emphasized the enormity of security challenges and made reference to a spot near Oba Akoko which is said to be regular operational base of gunmen.

During the engagement with reporters, the senator also said government will find sustainable solutions to the menace. He called for synergy among security agencies and advised security agencies to work closely with space agencies to ensure accurate mapping of possible locations and hideouts of criminals in Ondo State and Nigeria in general.

SIGNED:

Kayode Fakuyi,
Media Aide to Prof. Ajayi Boroffice, OON.
