The development has been keenly felt within the organization, particularly by the Ondo State Coordinator, High Chief Idowu Asonja. Sources close to the operation indicate that High Chief Asonja, who had been a dedicated mentor and provider of opportunities for Mr. Omotuyi, feels profoundly betrayed by the actions that led to the CSO’s termination.
In a public notice released on Friday, December 5, 2025, Tantita Security Services stated that Mr. Omotuyi’s employment was terminated due to actions that constitute a “violation of the company’s operational and ethical standards.”
The company asserted that its internal investigation successfully uncovered substantial evidence of Mr. Omotuyi’s involvement in illicit activities deemed “detrimental to the company’s integrity.” This evidence reportedly included WhatsApp communications, payment receipts, and various other documents related to the former CSO’s alleged misconduct.
Tantita Security Services has strongly cautioned the general public, partners, and stakeholders to immediately cease all forms of dealings with Mr. Owoyele Omotuyi Joseph, emphasizing that he no longer holds any mandate or authority to represent the organization in any capacity.
The dismissal comes amidst heightened scrutiny and various allegations surrounding the Ondo operations of Tantita, which is contracted by the Federal Government to secure oil pipelines and combat crude oil theft.
