Governors of the six states of the Niger Delta under the
umbrella s of BRACE Commission have met and proposed the establishment of a
special regional force to tackle the upsurge in kidnapping in the region. The force, according to the plan,
will be made up of a structure set up by the governors and the leadership of
the Nigeria Police with huge budget for the procurement of helicopters,
gunboats, patrol vans and coordinating digital coverage of the entire region.
The Special Adviser to the Bayelsa
Governor on Security, Col. Bernard Kenebai (Rtd) who disclosed this yesterday
in Yenagoa said though the proposed outfit is being put together by the six
special security advisers in the region, the outfit will coordinate the
existing security network in the states of the region.
