In a bid to strengthen security operations and institutional support across Cross River State, Governor Bassey Otu has officially handed over a fleet of operational vehicles to the Directors of the Homeland Security Service as well as the Provost of the College of Health Technology (COHTECH), Calabar.

The handover ceremony, which took place at the parking lounge of the Governor’s Office in Calabar, underscores the People-First administration’s continued commitment to the protection of lives and property, alongside the enhancement of public service delivery.

Speaking during the event, Governor Otu reaffirmed his administration’s resolve to bolster security infrastructure, noting that the vehicles were strictly meant for operational purposes in the service of the people.

“Our state is currently one of the safest in the country, but we are not stopping there. We are working toward a 100 percent safe Cross River. These vehicles are not for pleasure—they are tools meant to protect our people in every part of the state. To complement this effort, we will also be recruiting additional personnel to ensure lasting peace and stability,” he said.

While handing over the vehicle keys, the Governor charged the beneficiaries to uphold accountability, professionalism, and community responsiveness.

“This is a People-First government, and the legitimacy of your offices is determined by the feedback we receive from citizens. If the response is not encouraging, questions will be asked. We expect you to remain proactive, professional, and responsive at all times,” he emphasized.

Governor Otu also hinted at broader plans to roll out entrepreneurship and empowerment initiatives aimed at reducing idleness and increasing productivity across the state.

“We want more than just peace—we want a busy, engaged, and economically productive population. That’s why, in addition to improving security, we’re investing in sustainable enterprises that will empower individuals, families, and ultimately uplift the entire state,” he added.

Speaking on behalf of recipients, Mr. Raphael Odu, Director of the Northern Zone, Homeland Security Service, expressed appreciation for the Governor’s continued support and pledged unwavering commitment to the vision of a safer Cross River.

“We are truly grateful for this gesture. Beyond words, we will demonstrate our appreciation through exceptional service and visible results that align with Your Excellency’s vision,” he said.

Alongside the Homeland Security formation, Cross River State also maintains a multi-agency joint task force, Operation Okwok, comprising personnel drawn from various security outfits working collaboratively to uphold peace and order.
