Gov. Peter Obi yesterday opened a new vista in the fight against crime is by presenting 250 patrol vehicles fitted with sophisticated security gadgets to the 177 communities, markets and registered vigilance groups in Anambra State. The ceremony, graced by head of security agencies, traditional rulers, presidents-general, market leaders, government officials and other stakeholders in the state, took place at the Ekwueme Square, Awka.
.
While some community received one vehicle each, others received more depending on their number and population.
.
Speaking during the presentation, the governor said that the vehicles would be restricted to the community specifically for security purposes.
.
He warned against use of the vehicles to provide escort to politicians and other non-security related activities.
.
Obi also presented cheques worth over 250 million Naira to towns in the state, to pay 10 vigilante people per town and for fueling of the vehicles for a year.

In my opinion I don't think there is anything like final battle when it comes to CRIME in Nigeria. The battle has just started for me.
