This was the focus point of interactions, when members of Edo Civil Society Organisations (EDOCSO) Igueben study centre ably led by the coordinator Leftist Larry Enabulele met with the Police Area Command, Irrua on a familiarization visit.
The police area commander (ACP Benjamin Benafa) joined by other superior officers in the command with two divisional police officers under the command (i.e Dpo Irrua & Ewu) respectively, excluding Igueben were duly on ground to join their boss in giving a warm reception to the visiting human rights practitioners. Discussions were centered on possible ways of bringing a check to the current security challenges including the current spate of kidnapping in the state.

The ACP who promised not to relent in ensuring the good people of the command sleep with two eyes close, however solicited for support and collaborations with the people in nipping the problem on bud.

Ealier, the CSO members thanked the area commander for the show of support and solidarity during her 2023 – End – Of – Year reach-out program.

Highpoint of the visit was the presentation of stationaries as support in our quest of ridding the society of criminally minded individuals.

It is on record that ACP Benjamin Benafa is one of the gallant officers who execute his duties and functions as a police officer with all manners of civility, diligence and respect for human rights.

The CSO however promised to engage the relevant stakeholders and individuals in the society to support the security agencies in terms of operational facilities, as it is practically not possible to fight security challenges with ordinary fingers or crude facilities.
