 Now, Nigeria has witnessed an unprecedented level of insecurity making a threat, a major issue for the government. And this is a gap in huge allocation from the annual national budget. In this light, stakeholders in the oil and gas sector, under the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria-Pengasin Port Hackett Zone, have stressed that combatting insecurity effectively, especially in the Niger Delta region, requires collaborative efforts. These wars are the one-week security awareness program in Port Hackett. Details in this report. Security threats in Nigeria have become almost a daily occurrence. Individuals and groups are saying enough is enough. That's the reason for this security awareness program. And at this event, Pengasin is asking the police and other security outfits to rise to the occasion. Chairman of the Association in Port Hackett, Peter Onita, believes that in order to have a safer work environment, there is the need to evolve a safe business atmosphere. This will attract investment and increase employment opportunities. And this is not unachievable if all security agencies in the country have all hands on deck. It is a week to create the awareness for members of Pengasin, especially and indeed the members of the region, to see the need to collaborate with the police force, what we call security awareness. It's an awareness as Pengasin contribution to also appreciate what the police, the SSS, the other security pedestals are doing. Talking about community policing, it is not that we have to go and form a social community police because it interacts with the cooperation, collaboration between the police and other stakeholders. You know, there is no society where you say it is crime-free. But relatively, comparatively, river state is calm compared to most of our states in this situation for today. Pengasin appreciates the role of the federal government in handling the overwhelming spate of insecurity in Nigeria. The association also agrees to work on the LMS section of the east-west road. But they want all relevant stakeholders in the country, especially in the Niger Delta, to support security agencies for more business-friendly environment. We want to use this medium to encourage Nigerians that the security situation needs the effort of everybody. Security can no longer be in the hands of security alone. It's going to be a collective effort of all of us. Whatever we can do in our little way, individuals and organizations should contribute to complement what the government is doing. The theme for the one-week security awareness program is making Nigeria and Nigerians safer and more secure. Hello. Hope you enjoyed the news.
