Inspector-General Kayode Egbetokun authorized the Anambra State Police Command to provide professional training for regional security groups. The program aims to enhance the effectiveness of security and strengthen cooperation between local protective units and the Nigeria Police Force. State Police Public Relations Officer SP Tochukwu Ikenga revealed this development during a Saturday interview with the News Agency of Nigeria in Awka. He emphasized that community security organizations require modernization to align with contemporary protective procedures.

Local officers possess valuable intelligence and superior geographical knowledge compared to regular police personnel. The training addresses the challenge of public silence, where citizens withhold important information from authorities due to fear of retribution. Officers will learn to promote community reporting through the principle of sharing suspicious observations with law enforcement. The initiative prepares security forces for the upcoming November 8 gubernatorial election while reducing conflicts between local officers and residents through proper conduct training and human rights education.
