Army Appreciates LG Boss Over Security
The 103 Battalion of the Nigerian Army has presented an Award of Appreciation to the Chairman of Degema Local Government Area, Mr. Michael John Williams.
The Award’ is in appreciation of the Chairman’s support to security operatives and peace efforts in the Local Government Area.
Commanding Officer of the 103 Battalion, situated at Obuama, Lt. Col. V. K. Tagwoi, while presenting the award to the Council Chairman at the Council Secretariat, Monday, commended him for his huge investment in the security sector, which has contributed immensely to the peace and serenity, witnessed in the LGA.
He pledged the continued partnership of the Nigerian Army to the council’s administration, to ensure the continued peace and security of the LGA.
It would be recalled that the Council Chairman had been widely commended by various stakeholders for tackling insecurity, particularly within the LGA waterways.
There had been recurrent sea pirates activities, where pirates attacked passengers, dispossessing them of their valuables, abducting some victims in the process and in most cases, snatching the marine vessels.
This sad development had continued unabated for sometime, until the Michael John Williams administration came onboard, which in just two weeks in office declared a ‘No Ply Zone’ for pirates, by procuring and donating fully equipped surveillance boats to patrol the Bille-Ke-Port Harcourt sea route.
This move has however, yielded positive result, as the once troubled waterways in DELGA, are now safe for commuters and others who ply their trade along the waterways.
