Posted on October 3, 2025

The Kwara State Governor, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, has approved the recruitment of 2,600 additional forest guards as part of ongoing efforts to combat insecurity in Kwara North and South.

The new recruits will join the 700 forest guards earlier engaged, who are already working alongside security agencies at the frontline to combat banditry and restore peace in affected communities.

Like their predecessors, the 2,600 new forest guards, whose training will begin this week, will undergo advanced military training, including the handling of sophisticated weapons and modern strategies for neutralizing threats on the battlefield.

This renewed recruitment drive underscores the Governor’s commitment to strengthening security architecture across the state and ensuring that criminal elements are weeded out to restore lasting peace in Kwara.
