Kidnapping: Gov Soludo Reveals Package for Whistleblowers

0

As part of efforts to  tackle insecurity in Anambra State, Governor Charles Soludo, on Saturday, unveiled the Anam­bra Homeland Security Law and also launched the Special Secu­rity Operation code named Udi Ga-Achi.

He also promised a N5million reward to any whistleblower, who will provide information that will lead to the arrest of any kidnapper.

The governor who promised that his government would pay a monthly bonus of N10 million to any of the Local Government Areas (LGAs) which records zero violent crimes, urged each com­munity to design and execute its own “cleansing or restoration programme”.

Soludo also disbursed about 200 vehicles to various security agencies to strengthen their operations.

They included Sienna Vehicles and Hilux trucks.

While launching the operation at the International Convention Centre in Awka, the governor said: “We have come to launch an operation that will secure us. First was the passage of the Anambra Homeland Security Laws, which was done just two days ago; the bill has been passed into law and has become operational.

He regretted that people had initially linked the criminals to the Biafra struggle, while many others who watched events shortly before the 2021 governorship election attributed it to politics.

Governor Soludo said the criminalities have nothing to do with politics or even the Biafra struggle, but a money-making enterprise.

He added that security agencies are doing their best in the state, and he will ensure that they function properly by providing logistical support for a full war against the criminals.
