Kwara Govt Donates 150 Motorcycles to Nigerian Army to Boost Security
By Alabidun Shuaib AbdulRahman
The Kwara State Government, led by Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, has donated 150 off-road motorcycles to the Nigerian Army to further strengthen security operations and maintain peace across the state.
INCNews247 reports that the motorcycles are expected to enhance troops’ mobility and effectiveness, particularly in rugged terrains such as forests, where non-state actors may be hiding with intent to destabilise the peaceful atmosphere of the state.
The strategic intervention follows recent reports of disturbances by non-state actors in parts of Kwara South and Kwara North.

In response, Governor AbdulRazaq led a high-powered joint security delegation on an operational assessment tour to the Kaiama Local Government Area in Kwara North on Monday, April 21, 2025.
Also, within 24 hours of the tour, the Governor held a strategic meeting with the Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Olufemi Olatubosun Oluyede, in his office at Ahmadu Bello House, Ilorin.
The Army Chief assured the Governor of the Army’s readiness to collaborate with other security agencies to restore peace in the affected areas.
In a complementary move, local government authorities across the state have also acquired 320 motorcycles for strategic deployment of vigilante operatives, further consolidating Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq’s commitment to a peaceful and secure Kwara State.
