Akeju criticized the absence of a quick security reaction following the murder, pointing out that no security had been sent to the scene since the police had removed the victim's body.
"It is extremely concerning that no security presence has been established in the community after the tragedy and the Nigeria Police's evacuation of her body. He claimed that without guarantees of justice or safety, our people are now forced to live in constant fear.
In order to guarantee that the offenders are apprehended and prosecuted and that peace and security are restored to the impacted areas, the AYF urged security authorities, traditional leaders, and pertinent stakeholders to take these actions.

To stop similar incidents in the future, concrete steps must be implemented. The Akoko Youth Forum will not remain silent as our people endure bloodshed, violence, and terror. We call for prompt action, victim justice, and strong security measures from the government," the group continued.
