Army Trains 1,472 Edo Corps To Tackle Insecurity

Okpebholo

Edo State Governor, Senator Monday Okpebholo, on Thursday, said 1,472 security corps agents have been trained by the Nigerian Army to tackle security challenges in the state.

Governor Okpebholo noted that his administration has reorganised the Edo State Security Corps to embrace professionalism and collaborate with security agencies to fight criminality in the state.

The governor made this known at the passing out parade of the newly reorganised Edo State Security Corps members at the Edo State National Orientation Camp (NYSC) in Okada, Ovia North East local government area of the state.

Represented by his Deputy, Hon. Dannis Idahosa, Governor Okpebholo said the activities of the former Corps were politicised and lacked professionalism, hence the decision to reorganise and restructure the Corps.
