During the visit, Danjuma and his management team conducted a security assessment at divisions in Obowo, Ehime Mbano, Isiala Mbano, and Aboh Mbaise LGAs, which had been attacked by criminal elements.
During his visit to Aboh Mbaise, CP Danjuma met with the local government chairman, Henry Alaribe Iheukwumere, and other key stakeholders to discuss security strategies, highlighting the important role of community-based vigilante groups in partnering with the police to maintain peace and build trust.
