Governor Dapo Abiodun donated the vehicles in the presence of the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Mr Kayode Egbetokun, at the Arcade Ground, Governor‘s Office, Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta, even as he called on the force to include technology in its crime fighting efforts.

He said acquiring the drones was one of the proactive steps his administration has taken in collaboration with Lagos and Oyo states to effectively monitor activities on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway to ensure prompt response in emergency situations.

The drones, the governor noted, would be operated by trained personnel from the Nigeria Police Force, Department of State Service (DSS) and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corp.

Governor Abiodun who had earlier received the Inspector General in his office said: „As a gesture of appreciation of you and all what you‘re doing to law enforcement and effective policing in our state and by extension Nigeria, we have decided to complement you and your efforts by donating today, 25 patrol vans to the police and our law enforcement architecture. This, we believe, will commemorate your first official visit to Ogun State.”

Also, Egbetokun said his vision was to put in place a professionally competent police force that is service oriented, rule of law compliant, people friendly and positioned to respond appropriately and adequately to the dynamics of crimes in the society.

He acknowledged the massive infrastructural development across the state, disclosing that more police stations and more Area Commands would be created as well as the deployment of more mobile policemen squadrons to provide adequate security in the state.
