Okowa to Nigerians: Support govt, security agencies to tackle insecurity
Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State has called on Nigerians to support government and security agencies in tackling the problem of insecurity plaguing the country. Okowa Okowa, who spoke in Asaba during the commissioning of Police Eagle-Net Special Squad Office, and operational vehicles, said the task of ensuring peace and security in the society should not be left for government alone. He said: “We cannot continue to leave the affairs of security to the government alone.
Individuals who are blessed, as well as corporate organisations, ought to and should continue to support police in their work so that they can have the best in delivering their duties because when they have the best working environment they are likely to be more civil in their duties. “As a country and as a people, we must realise that we require the partnership of the police and we ought to be their partners if we want things to work. The private sector should support the security agencies to ensure peace and security in the country.” Speaking further, Okowa commended the management of Delta State Oil Producing Areas Development Commission, DESOPADEC and the Delta State Security Trust Fund for embarking on the project and operational vehicles. He said; “I must also thank the management of DESOPADEC and the management of Delta State Security Trust Fund for their collaboration with the police, starting first with the Eagle Net Squad and the Transit camp for women that was built.
We need to partner the police force to provide conducive working environment for its officers and members, so as to get the best out of them.” While congratulating the state Police Commissioner, Mr Muhammed Mustafa, for his leadership qualities in bringing out the best in his subordinates, Okowa eulogised the initiator of the projects, DSP Usman Dimka, who is in charge of the Eagle-Net Special Squad, Asaba, for his initiative in building the office and Transit Camp, urging others to emulate him.
