IGP visits Governor Obiano

As part of activities marking his one-day work visit to the State aimed at strengthening the partnership with the State Government in maintaining a crime-free

Anambra State, The Inspector-General of Police, Mr Solomon Arase friday paid a courtesy visit on Governor Willie Obiano.

The IGP who was accompanied on the visit by top ranking Officers of the Nigerian Police was received by the Governor at the Governor's Lodge, Amawbia. Speaking after meeting with the Inspector-General of Police, Governor Obiano said the Police remained a veritable tool in his administration's sustained onslaught against criminals which has made the state the best in the country in terms of security.

The Governor noted that through his administration's organised system of crime-fighting, it has been able to prove that with proper motivation and assistance, the Nigerian Police can effectively live up to its responsibility of protecting the live and property of the citizenry.

Congratulating Mr Arase on his confirmation as the new IGP, Governor Obiano said the honour would spur him to greater and laudable achievements in the nation's security sector, assuring him of the continued support and partnership of the State Government.

He reassured Ndi Anambra that having made security its priority, his administration is committed to sustaining efforts at ensuring that the State remained free from the clutches of armed robbers and kidnappers as well as making her habitable for the investors he is attracting to grow her economy.

Earlier, the Inspector-General of Police, Mr Arase said the visit was to thank Governor Obiano for his uncommon intervention and reforms in the State Security Sector and to encourage him to do more. He noted that through his avowed commitment to rid the State of criminals, the Present Administration has exhibited genuine resolve towards improving the lot of Ndi Anambra and entrenching Peace and Stability which are preconditions for meaningful development to ensue.

The IGP also commended the Community-Police partnership approach adopted by the state government towards policing all nooks and crannies of the state and called on Governors across the Country to adopt the model to intensify the efficiency of Police efforts in their various states.

The Inspector-General of Police had earlier inspected facilities put in place by the present administration that have aided the huge success it has so far recorded in the area of security which included bay stations, Over 120 Command and Control Patrol Vehicles, Communication gadgets, the Central Security Control room amongst others.

What of Fashola's model.
Armed robbery in lagos reduced by 95% during Fashola's 8years tenure.

Lagos is now the most policed state in Nigeria with police rapid squad within every kilometer.

The lekki bank robbery 2months ago was the first bank robbery in 7yrs of relative peace. The governor linked it to the over-pull of the policing structure and resources by GEJ.

State Policing still our best option.

I am of a strong school of thot that state policing is still d best option for Nigeria.. The rate at which the federal government is running the police affair makes It difficult to check the excesses of policemen..
Wish the incoming govt under d auspices of our great hero SAI buhari will discentralize d ministry to be controlled by state... Same shd be done to state on power generation..

Wile I know........correct man

Osun state needs to learn everything from Nigeria because osun state money is used to pay Anambra civil servants.

Wait don't scream, the interest from osun state bond is used to pay Anambra workers.

Osun state should stop electing TV mechanic as governor if they want to grow.
