In a bid to strengthen grassroots security and deepen community engagement, the Executive Chairman of Obanliku Local Government Area, Hon. Chief (Dr) Sunny Ayang, JP, today met with successful applicants of the Community Policing Programme ahead of their forthcoming paramilitary training.
Held at the Chairman’s office, the orientation brought together newly selected recruits from all ten wards of the LGA who had recently passed the rigorous selection process into the community security scheme.
Congratulating the applicants, Hon. Ayang charged them to maintain discipline and stay committed as they prepare for camp, which begins Thursday, 14th August, 2025. He urged them to gather all necessary kits and approach the exercise with a sense of duty.
“This isn’t just about uniforms and drills, it’s about becoming a trusted bridge between your communities and the security architecture that serves them,” he said.
The upcoming training, organised in collaboration with the Nigeria Police and other security agencies, will focus on equipping recruits with core paramilitary skills, alongside modules on human rights, civil engagement, and professional conduct.
The Community Policing Programme forms a key part of the Chairman’s broader security vision—one rooted in citizen participation, trust-building, and proactive collaboration with law enforcement institutions.
