THE Special Adviser to the Governor on Political Matters, Chief Ifeatu Obi-Okoye, says the security architecture of Anambra State under the Governor Willie Obiano administration is one of the best in the country.
He stated this in Awka, the Anambra state capital on Wednesday while speaking with newsmen on the security situation of the state.
Chief Obi-Okoye, a lawyer noted that before Governor Willie Obiano took over the mantle of leadership, Anambra State was under serious siege by armed robbers and kidnappers, pointing out that due to the deliberate and conscious efforts of the present administration, criminality has been reduced to the barest minimum.
