“I have ordered the re-accreditation of all operatives of the State’s Security Vigilante Network, numbering over 6,500, in a renewed effort to strengthen our security architecture to combat crime and ensure the security of lives and property of residents.
“We will collaborate with federal security agencies, manning our 24/7 hours Command and Control Centre to ensure any incident, crime or breach of security is reported and all security agencies are in full alert to deal with such.
