The Anambra State government says she will issue a code of conduct and operation to all security agencies operated by the government to ensure civility at all times.
This was disclosed by the Commissioner for Information, Dr. Law Mefor after the 13th Anambra State Executive Council (ANSEC) Meeting, which took place at the Light House, Awka, on Monday.
Southeastposts reports that the code of conduct and operation for the security operatives follows recent complaints about rights abuse by some operatives of the various agencies.
Recall that recently, operatives of Agunechemba, the state operated security agency, while going after suspected criminals, shot and killed a girl in a community in Anambra State.
As part of measures to curb such unethical conduct, the state government said in addition to the code of operation and conduct for the operatives, it has also organized trainings to polish them on how they should operate.
Mefor stated: “Recognising the need for enhanced security and service delivery, the council (ANSEC), gave the state’s enforcement agencies—including Agunechemba, Ocha Brigade, and the Anti-Touts Squad, high marks for their performance.
“To strengthen their capabilities and guarantee more accountability and responsive enforcement across all sectors, it was reported that further training for the operatives had begun, and a Code of Conduct would be issued for all operatives after the training.”
