Ogun State Security Network Agency and Amotekun Corps is set to commence the recruitment of additional 500 personnel across the state.

"We strongly encourage all eligible individuals to participate in this important undertaking and play a vital role in fostering a secure community environment", he said

The Amotekun boss asked the interested candidates to submit their applications free of charge via the official website:(http://ogunstateamotekun.com.ng).
