- SECURITY OF LIFES AND PROPERTIES; First and foremost, as the head of the affairs I have to lead by example by making sure I respect and obey the laws. When I make promises and I fulfill it, I build confidence in the people. They feel respected and secure, and they will naturally respect the authority and obey the laws. The delegated security officials will also enjoy the cooperation of the people and things will go on smoothly as possible. Safe environment will boost investors confidence which will in turn have direct positive impact on our economy as regards employments and improved internally generated revenue (IGR).
Without peace and enabling environment there cannot be development. My Government shall consolidate on security issue in the State. We need security for development to take effect. Without security & enabling business environment, no investor will invest in a turbulent state.
Therefore, we shall put much energy in securing the lives and property of our people and State. Most importantly is job creation to keep our Youths active and productive.
- We will construct new and rehabilitate existing security agency infrastructure.
- We will deliver more security patrol vehicles, supply communication and other surveillance equipment to all security agencies across the state.
- We will sustain cordial working relationship between all security agencies in the State and Federal Government.
- We will employ the use of technology to track and apprehend criminal activities and criminals.
- We will establish an effective communication system between the state security agencies and the community. In partnership with our brother of International Institute of Community Policing (IICOPOL) Dr. Aminu Musa Audu, Kogi State shall be the first to establish Community Policing through which our youths can get employed and also secure notorious areas.
- I will back this up working for the passage of Administration of Criminal Justice Law. We will introduce capacity building programs for Community Vigilante groups and develop community awareness through the law enforcement and local governments.
Thuggery, Cultism, Kidnapping, Assassination and intimidation shall be a thing of the past if elected come 2019.
- ECONOMY AND WELFARE; Economic diversification and growth. Success of the next phase of our State’s development agenda will be determined not only by the efficacy with which we manage our economy, but also effective deployment of a well thought out infrastructural development plan.
