ANAMBRA STATE GOVERNMENT,HAS BEGUN CLAMPDOWN ON SOME ILLEGAL VIGILANTE GROUPS.

                                                            I was just informed that Anambra state Government has begun a clampdown on some members of the state vigilante services,AVS who are considered to be illegal in the state and outside the recognized ones which are 4,000 in number.Chairman of Anambra state Vigilante Supervisory Committee and former Commissioner of Police in Delta State Mr Ikechukwu Ayodele Aduba {retd} who disclosed this earlier these week to newsmen that the essence of clamping down on the illegal vigilante operatives was to help control the spate of crime rate amongst local vigilance operative in the state.He also noted that the clampdown exercise became imperative in view of the urgent need to arrest the discordant and disparaging activities of the various vigilante groups in the state,adding that AVS as a selfless and service oriented outfit ought to work under the strict supervision of the police but most of them exceeded their bounds,thus leading to abuses.This issue of some AVS members working at cross purposes ultimately defeated the purpose for which they were established.It is my observation that some of them are even operating out of pecuniary and selfish motives and often times,violated human rights and engage in unlawful use of fire arms,thus usurping the functions of the statutorily created outfits.For aviodance of doubts,vigilante outfits are not supposed to bear fire arms.No illegal cells and illegal cells and illegal detention are allowed.Suspects arrested should be promptly handed over to the police within a limited time.Principally,the vigilantes are to concern themselves with sourcing of information and monitoring/surveillance of the environment and joint patrols.Such information and intelligence gathered are to be passed on to the police''.One more photo below.
