The duo, who  expressed concern over the shortage of police personnel in their domains,  called on the Federal Government to embrace community policing.

Adetunji and Oyewunmi, however,  commended the Oyo State Government for ensuring the protection of lives and property in the state.

Earlier, Dr Nasirdeen Usman, the team leader, stated that the purpose of the visit was to receive royal blessings and find out strategies used in strengthening security of lives and property in the various  communities.

He said  communities need  to play a greater role in policing of their areas in order to achieve a crime-free society, adding that security was a collective responsibility.

Usman commended  the traditional rulers for  securing their communities through community policing.
