Governor Rotimi Akeredolu SAN of Ondo State has signed an Executive Order for mandatory installation and usage of Close Circuit Television (CCTV) devices in all private and public establishments in the state.

This development is a result of insecurity in the country, and the need to ensure the protection of lives and property.

In a press statement was signed by Richard Olatunde, the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, he said “The executive order shall be enforced at all religious places of worship, financial institutions (of all kinds), event centers, supermarkets, educational institutions (Schools), Hotels/Motels, Guest House, inns, Restaurants, Clinics and Health Centres, eateries (of all kinds), recreation or vehicular parks and other places regularly used by the public.”

“Pursuant to Section 176 (2) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria which vests in the Governor of Ondo State the Chief Executive powers of the state, the Governor, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN, hereby issues the following Executive Orders:

“That the owners, occupiers, managers, and operators of public/private institutions within Ondo State shall mandatorily install, use and maintain CCTV devices and other secret cameras to monitor and keep surveillance on the daily activities on their premises and especially monitor the ingress and egress of people/vehicles at the said places, venues, and centers. ”

” That the installed CCTV devices apart from capturing all activities at the public/private institutions must also have data storage hardware and data stored therein should be made available to security agencies whenever it is required.”

” That public/private institutions shall employ and maintain well-trained security personnel who shall man the entry and exit points to their various facilities/premises.”

“That where necessary, the owners and occupiers of public/private institutions shall erect a well-fortified perimeter fence with a security post at the entry and exit points.”

“That this Executive Order shall be enforced by all security agencies particularly the Nigeria Police, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Ondo State Security Network Agency (Amotekun), and the Department of State Security Services (DSS).”

“That violators of this Executive Order shall be prosecuted by Section 203 of the Criminal Code (Cap. 37) Laws of Ondo State of Nigeria.”
