Forty-two persons from the northern part of the country whose mission to Ondo state is not clear to the state government have been returned to their states of origin.

While parading them in Akure, the commander of the Amotekun corps, Adetunji Adeleye said the people claimed they came for private firm security training.

The explanations provided by them are not satisfactory to the state government.

These men and women were first sighted in Okitipupa local government area of Ondo state on Thursday and

Their arrival created unnecessary tension and apprehension among many residents of the community.

These people who came from Jigawa and Kano states were said to have come for a mission unknown to the government 

Amotekun commander said after interrogating them, they could not give satisfactory answers about their mission.

The state commissioner for Information and Orientation, Donland Ojogo, said the action of the government was meant to ensure that they return safely to their bases.

According to him, the government will continue to ensure that people whose mission is not cleared are not allowed to stay in the state.
