To improve the state’s security architecture and foster a safe atmosphere for both locals and tourists, the administration of Governor Charles Soludo has implemented new security measures. The Office of the Special Adviser on Community Security issued security directions with a whistleblower policy to town union president generals, hotel owners, and landlords and landladies.
Thank you for visiting The Vestigator, don't forget to share!
Hotel guests are required to present a valid government-issued national identity card, international passport, or voter’s card to the hotel management, along with a photocopy of the documents submitted to the community president general, who will subsequently forward them to the state government and the local government mayor, according to a statement from Law Mefor, the Commissioner for Information.
The message states that failure to comply will result in the loss of the hotel’s amenities as well as possible legal action. The decree further stated that landlords and landladies might face prosecution and property loss if they did not get a form from their President General for each tenant with a government-issued identity and submit it to the state administration. Under the new directive, town union presidents now serve as chairmen of their local Agunaechemba security committees, which are part of the state’s security apparatus.
They are responsible for overseeing the security network’s day-to-day operations, reporting to the state government once a month, and suspending or perhaps sanctioning any noncompliance. Additionally, because anyone with important information that results in an arrest would receive a prize of N5 million or more, the whistleblowing policy encourages the public to report any suspicious activity or kidnappers to the state authorities.
In order to protect people’s safety and property, the administration of Governor Soludo thus requests that all citizens and stakeholders comply with these guidelines.
