The commissioner of police Abutu Yaro at whose instance the meeting was held says the support of governor Godwin Obaseki in providing operational vehicles and other logistics has made it possible to come up with new strategies and reforms to curb incidents of kidnappings, not only on the Benin- Auchi road but also other roads which had become notorious for the kidnapping of road users.
Speaking on the open grazing law recently assented to by governor Godwin Obaseki in Edo state, Abutu says modalities for its implementation are in progress.
The resolve at the end of the meeting is for stakeholders to support the Edo State Police Command in actualising the mandate of securing the state.
