By Chinwe Imo-Eze Onwosi
The Ebonyi State Government has distributed 20 brand new Hilux vans and 40 Toyota Sienna buses to the security agencies in the state for the maintenance of peace and security of lives and properties.
Governor David Umahi presented the operational vehicles to the Security Agencies, Friday, at Governor’s Lodge, new Government House, Centenary City, Abakaliki.
Umahi paid glowing tributes to the Security Agencies for their resilience in protecting the people, especially in restoring peace at Effium war-torn community.
He enjoined Community leaders especially those who will benefit from the Abakaliki Ring road Project to form vigilantes to protect the expatriates, noting that any threat to the workers at any point would lead to exclusion of the area in the project.
“We are about awarding the first phase of the ring road which is about 70km of concrete road, the best ever, so it is an opportunity to the communities to go back and do a meeting and provide security on the road,” he stated.
