Mrs Amaechi Wants Better Deal For Security Operatives
Wife of the Rivers State
Governor, Dame Judith Amaechi has advocated a proper legislation that will protect and enhance adequate welfare policy for families of security personnel who lost their lives while on national assignment.
Dame Amaechi stated this recently while playing host to the chairperson, Police Officers Wives Association (POWA) and wife of the Rivers State Commissioner of Police, Mrs Chinyere Ogunsakin, who paid her a courtesy visit at Government House, Port Harcourt.
She stated that a proper legislative welfare policy was imperative due to the security challenges in the country at the moment.
“Adequate welfare policy and compensation package is the only reward for service and insurable factor of families who donated their bread winner for national service”.
Dame Amaechi asserted that the raging insurgence in some parts of the country has taken a worrisome dimension, hence the need for review of welfare and compensation policy.
According to her, “I think it is very appropriate for policy makers to make a review of welfare policy of security agencies and their agents in response to the nation’s peculiar security challenges, this is because, the demise of breadwinners leave families with so much devastation and deprivation”.
Mrs. Amaechi, whose NGO, the Empowerment Support Initiative (ESI), has championed and sustained advocacy on the development of pre-school education in the country, hinted of her determination to partner with POWA in driving the early childhood education initiative.
“Nigeria environment is highly vulnerable, we need to begin now to re-orientate the minds of our children at infancy, that’s why we have been able to establish 36 permanent structures and 95 temporary sites of our early child care development education in 95 communities.
