Abia To Convert Criminal Hideouts To Market by Panfido(m): 4:46am On Apr 12
THE Abia State Police Command, in collaboration with Local Government Area authorities, has inspected volatile spots in the state, to enhance security across the state.

The command, through its Divisional Police Officers, inspected volatile spots within their areas of operations.

As part of the comprehensive crime-prevention strategy, the state Commissioner of Police, Kenechukwu Onwuemelie, accompanied by the Mayor, Umuahia North Local Government, Victor Ikeji, on Wednesday, personally undertook crucial assessments of some areas.

The mayor said the shanties, serving as criminal hideouts, would be demolished while the government would build a motor park and market on the land.

According to the mayor, demolishing the shanties would also have positive security implications as it would displace criminals and drug peddlers around the city centre.

During the exercise, the team focused on areas known to be hotbeds of criminal activities and drug peddling in the Umuahia North Local Government Area.

Some of the spots visited were the bicycle repair workshop behind Okigwe Park in Umuahia and the former Ohuhu Motor Park, all in Abia, among others.

Speaking after the inspection, the Commissioner of Police, who said the shanties were known hubs for criminals and drug peddlers, stressed the importance of transforming the volatile areas into productive spaces.


โ€œBy reclaiming these spaces from criminal elements, the state can foster a safer environment conducive to economic growth and development. This proactive approach aligns with our commitment to ensuring the well-being and security of all residents in Abia State.

โ€œThe Abia State Police Command remains dedicated to collaborating with local government authorities and other stakeholders to implement effective security measures, by addressing root causes of crime and implementing strategic interventions,โ€ the CP said.

He assured the mayor of the partnership of the Nigerian Police Force in Abia State during the demolition and rebuilding of the shanties, as he promised to partner with the mayor to clear Umuahia of all forms of criminal elements.

To think Alex has been contesting to be a governor of Abia State since 2015 and the wicked people choose to sabotage a good man with better intentions for his people.

Ikpeazu with his big head cheated him in 2015 even after an appeal court ruled that Alex won the 2015 election but no one can stop the will of God for his people.

Ride on Alex.. Ride on.

Now thatโ€™s how you convert structures termed illegal or notorious places to something useful to its citizens rather than pulling them down.

Na lie... He was in APGA in 2015 and 2019 while he was contesting for Governor of Abia state. He defected to the All Progressive Congress shortly after the 2019 General Election and spent 16 months in APC before defecting to the Labour Party.

Make Una no dey do like NFF wey dey only recognize player after them don dey do exploits for their club overseas. Otti has been an APGA grassroot since 2012.

Please help us with what Governor Alia is doing thas seem better.

We are interested in a collective better society, if Governor Alia or any other Governor sits up and perform, just like I marvel at Governor Babajide Sanwo Olu exploits in managing Lagos State with it's population, we will give credit where credits are due.

If they are sensible, theyโ€™ll sit back and watch Otti and good governance.

PDP need not contest in Abia till 2055 to avoid money wasting.
