The restoration of the Ojoto Divisional Police Headquarters has received renewed attention as the Mayor of Idemili South, Hon. Oluchukwu John Ilogbenu (Olutek), joined top police officers and community leaders to assess progress on the facility.
The visit, which underscores the administration’s commitment to strengthening security infrastructure, featured the Divisional Police Officer, SP Austin Okafor, and the Officer-in-Charge of Oraifite Area Command, ACP Mike Anude.
They were accompanied by the President General of Ojoto Akanasato Union, Barr. Ernest Obunadike, and Chief Sir Romeo Anyisia (Ichie Obododike II), representing the traditional ruler of Ojoto, alongside other community stakeholders.
During the inspection, the delegation assessed the ongoing restoration of the divisional headquarters, which was affected by a security incident several years ago, necessitating efforts to restore its operational capacity.
The restoration is expected to reinforce police presence in Ojoto, improve response to security concerns, strengthen police-community relations and provide a more secure environment for residents and neighbouring communities.
Speaking during the visit, Mayor Ilogbenu appreciated the people of Ojoto for their cooperation and support, noting that sustainable security could only be achieved through collective responsibility.
He reaffirmed his administration’s readiness to collaborate with the police, traditional institutions, community leaders and other stakeholders in addressing security concerns and promoting peace across Idemili South.
The Mayor called for sustained community support for security initiatives, stressing that restoring the Ojoto Divisional Police Headquarters represents an important step towards strengthening grassroots security and protecting lives and property.MOI
