The Inspector-General of Police
(IGP) Ibrahim Idris on Thursday ordered the establishment of a Marine Base in
the Edo State Police Command.
This was disclosed to newsmen by
the State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Johnson Babatunde Kokumo at the State
Command headquarters in Benin.
He stated that the establishment
of the marine base would stop crimes as waterways in the state were being used
to kidnap victims to neighbouring states of Ondo and Delta.
“The establishment of marine base
will ensure that our waterways are safe and are no longer used to ferry kidnap
victims.
“The Base would be located in one
of the communities in the waterways.
“We will not rest on our oars in
our fight to reduce crime and criminality from the State,” Kokumo said.
