The Senior Special Assistant to the Governor of Abia State on Due Process, Dr. Oluebube Amarauche Chukwu, has commended the Executive Governor of Abia State, Dr. Alex Otti, OFR, for the successful launch of the Abia State Security Trust Fund.
The establishment of the Security Trust Fund is a strategic step by the State Government to consolidate the significant achievements recorded in securing lives and property since the inception of Governor Otti’s administration. These efforts have created a safe and conducive environment that continues to drive rapid development across the state.
Speaking at the event, Dr. Chukwu described Governor Otti’s security strategy as “sublime and workable,” noting its effectiveness in addressing emerging security challenges and ensuring a peaceful atmosphere in the state.
He further emphasized that the Security Trust Fund will be instrumental in sustaining and enhancing the state’s security framework. It will support the procurement of logistics, surveillance equipment, and other critical infrastructure for security agencies. Additionally, the Fund will facilitate the establishment of an ultramodern command and control center for statewide monitoring, ensuring swift emergency response and real-time interventions for the safety of all Abians.
In separate remarks, the Chairman of the Abia State Security Trust Fund Board of Trustees, Mr. Stanley Obiamarije represented by Vice Chairman Sir Johnson Chukwu, and the Secretary of the Board, Ms. Nkolika Cleopatra Ubani, outlined the objectives, expected outcomes, and operational strategies of the Fund as it commences full operations.
