The prowl of One Chance Syndicate and hand bag Snatchers have drastically reduced in Imo State, mostly, Owerri Municipal Council, since the inceptions of, Security Biometric Data Capture and Painting Committee under Elder Anaelechi Ukanwune (Obowo) came on board through the Ministry of Transport to give insignia and security to the Commercial vehicles plying the state including the shuttle buses within the Capital and other major Cities in the State.
Speaking, Mr. Louis Nwaiwu, Imo City Bus Driver, while eulogizing the leadership of Imo State Security Biometric Data Capture and Painting under Elder Anaelechi Ukanwune (Obowo) thank the, governor Senator Hope Uzodimma for his numerous efforts to the interest of the drivers including yearly donations of Christmas and new year free fuel 15 to 25 liters respectively, rehabilitation of internal and external Road including MCC Uratta, Chukwuma Nwoha, Dick Tiger, Relief Market, World Bank, Owerri to Orlu, Owerri to Okigwe, Owerri to Umuahia and many others.
Mr. Nwaiwu, further,expressed confidence in the security architecture realized to the State through the good job of the State Security Biometric Data Capture and Painting Committee by ensuring that the commercial vehicle is captured and painted in the State colourful Blue, White and stripes with each vehicle bearing it’s own unified identification number which could be used to track it paraventures of any security eventuality or challenges.
Also the vehicles are serialized to ply particular routes under the monitor of the leadership of Imo State City Transport Drivers Association.
The Security Biometric Data Capture and Painting achieved much to stop the activities of persistent One Chance Syndicate and hand bag Snatchers often regarded as hawks in the past as hardly will one hear about such nefarious activities in Owerri Imo State again as the fear of the State Security Biometric Data Capture and Painting has pushed them out of the State.
This is one of the successes of the, governor, Senator Hope Uzodimma Onwa Oyoko’s achievements in the State as he has remained a vision bearer and a good drive of human administration as the Security Biometric Data Capture and Painting team has proven beyond reasonable doubt that they are knowledgeable enough to sanitize the transport sector and enthroned security consciousness not only to the drivers but also the passengers.
“We are happy with the governor Senator Hope Uzodimma Onwa Oyoko for his resounding victory at the Election and even the Petition Tribunal as we need him to continue as the working governor.
We also thanked him for the retaining the Committee of Security Biometric Data Capture and Painting under Elder Anaelechi Ukanwune Obowo for the good work They are doing to ensure that those drivers in the State are in one page. We have achieved relatively peace and security since their inception. We the Drivers will come to support you Sir as our leader We will reach out to you through the leadership of Imo State City Transport Drivers Association to know what we need as the economy is biting hard on us with the geometric hike in the cost of refueling our buses which has brought about the astronomical increase in the transport fare on the passengers who are equally our brothers and sisters. Help us Sir to get remedy to reduce the pump price”. Nwaiwu said.
