The Governor said the State required training support for the Neighborhood Safety Corps Agency operatives.

He said: “Virtually all states in Nigeria have security challenges. We have established the Neighborhood Safety Corps Agency to help the security agencies with critical information to fight crime.

“Such information will help the security agencies nip crimes in the bud. We need assistance for the provision of necessary security training aids for operatives of the Neighborhood Safety Corps Agency“.
