Sen. Nwoko Revamps Idumuje-Ugboko Police Station Abandoned 8 Years Ago
BY FRED ODU
Senator Ned Nwoko, representing the Delta North senatorial district in the National Assembly, has successfully rehabilitated the previously non-functional police station in Idumuje-Ugboko community.
The police station abandoned about eight year ago, was among several constituency projects recently inspected by Senator Nwoko’s Chief of Staff, Dr. Michael Nwoko.
Nwoko had expressed deep concern over the lack of a functional police station in Idumuje-Ugboko, a critical area with a major road linking to Edo State and proximity to a university, which made it particularly vulnerable to security threats.
The renovation, encompassed comprehensive furnishing and the refurbishment of toilet facilities.
Beyond structural repairs, the project included the construction of a perimeter fence around the police station.
Speaking to newsmen about the project, Dr. Michael Nwoko emphasized that these enhancements aim to make the police station fully operational.
He further disclosed that a team of police officers would soon be assigned to Idumuje-Ugboko to ensure effective policing and bolster security in the area. Notably, the police station had been operational from 2009 until its abandonment in 2017.
Recognizing the necessity of its revival, Senator Nwoko initiated the renovation to ensure the Sports University community and surrounding regions are adequately policed.
Plans are also underway for the construction of residential quarters behind the police station to accommodate assigned personnel, with provisions for an Anti-Cult Unit within the vicinity.
Dr. Michael Nwoko underscored that these developments reflect Senator Nwoko’s commitment to providing a conducive environment for law enforcement, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of policing in the area.
He reiterated that the facility has been officially designated as a Divisional Police Station, with its infrastructure tailored to support operations at that level.
Dr. Nwoko reaffirmed Senator Nwoko’s dedication to improving the socio-economic well-being of Delta North residents, emphasizing that ensuring the security of lives and property is fundamental to achieving this goal.
