PORT HARCOURT— GOVERNOR Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State, has reaffirmed his administration’s continued support for the Nigeria Police as a strategic partner in keeping law and order in the state.
The governor made the pledge during the fund raising for the Christian Police Chapel Building organised by Christian Police Fellowship of Nigeria, CPFN, at the Force Headquarters, Abuja, recently.
Represented by his deputy, Mr. Tele Ikuru, the governor said: “For the sacrifice officers and men of the Nigeria Police made in helping us fight criminality and restore law and order in the state when we came in, we will continue to support them.
“We were the first to send 300 policemen to Israel to undergo advanced security training and those policemen today constitute the backbone of the new Police Force that is able to fight crime effectively.”
The governor expressed delight at the Police gathering to build for God, adding “we want to reassure you (Police) that the Rivers State Government is your partner.”
