The Senator representing Anambra South Senatorial District, Senator Dr Ifeanyi Ubah, has supported Abatete in Idemili North local government area and Enugwu-Agidi, in Njikoka local government area, with gadgets to ensure adequate security networking in the two communities.
However, the security support was to compliment the community efforts that were unveiled by the two communities on the first day of the year, to ensure the safety of their communities and the area.
Supporting their modest efforts, Senator Dr Ubah, committed to offset half of the security trust fund target, by donating security gadgets worth at least N50 million Naira.
At the event, the Chief of Staff to Governor Chukwuma Soludo, Mr. Ernest Ezeajughi, described the efforts as a public-private community partnership, which he said the government encourages.
In Abatete community, efforts towards a safe and secure Abatete are coordinated by De Great Abatete Ambassadors – DGAA.
The group consists of young, successful businessmen and professionals in diverse works of life. Through community efforts, they were able to purchase five motorcycles and two Sienna vehicles for security patrol around the community.
According to the group, their target is to achieve a milestone of N100 million security trust fund.
