The Rotary Club of Port Harcourt Gateway has repainted the headquarters of Mile One Police Division and rebranded its signpost.
It also presented branded waste bins and sanitation tools to the police barracks in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital.
The sanitation tools, branded waste bins, brooms and rakes, are intended to support regular sanitation within the police compound and barracks.
At the event in Port Harcourt, the president of Rotary Club of Port Harcourt Gateway, Ben Emeruwa, said the project was borne out of the need to support the police in maintaining their environment while ensuring the station is easily identifiable to residents and visitors.
Emeruwa said, “The project was necessitated by the need to maintain the police force’s buildings and the faded police signboard, which is necessary to aid people not conversant with the Mile 1 area to easily notice that there is a police presence there.
“We are committed to creating visible, sustainable impact across public facilities in our community, especially those that play key roles in safety and social order,” he said.
The divisional police officer (DPO), Francis Ogbechie, received the donated items on behalf of the state command.
The event was attended by the assistant district governor of Rotary International, Zone 27, Victor Awowade, who joined club members to formally present the projects.
