Describing Akamkpa as a peaceful and accommodating region, Hon. Akposi emphasised the council’s readiness for inter-agency collaboration in addressing security challenges. “Akamkpa is open to collaboration. At the moment, Akamkpa is safe though funding has been a challenge owing to the numerous challenges in Akamkpa Local Government Area notably road network and patrol vehicles which the Local Government Council is trying to contain,” the Chairman stated.

The Chairman further highlighted the traditional governance structure in Akamkpa, applauding the harmonious leadership selection process among clans and villages in accordance with cultural norms. He praised the Paramount Ruler, HRM Ophot Agbor Ewa Ebani, for maintaining synergy with the people and ensuring the Traditional Rulers’ Council remains responsive and supportive of government initiatives.

Earlier, the State Security Adviser South, Lt. Commander Odiong (Rtd), stressed the imperative of partnership in tackling the complexities of modern-day insecurity. He urged for seamless coordination among security agencies, underlining the need for transparency and unity of purpose. “Teamwork and synergy of all relevant stakeholders is key to the success we must strive for. There must be coordination and integration. Don’t keep any information because you want to take the glory,” he warned.

Representing the Paramount Ruler, His Royal Highness Ntufam Paul Ntui lauded the SSAS for his proactive stance and echoed the Council Chairman’s appeal for improved logistics, including better road infrastructure and operational vehicles for security agents. “These are vital to enabling swift response in emergencies,” he added.

Also lending his voice, the Divisional Police Officer of Akamkpa Urban, SUPOL Ini Johnson, commended the Council for recognising the efforts of the police, particularly with the commemoration of National Police Day under the current administration.

As the advocacy tour concluded, stakeholders unanimously agreed to foster a culture of cooperation, trust, and information sharing. The unified position underscored their collective resolve to uphold a secure and seamless operational environment for all security agencies in Akamkpa, laying a strong foundation for sustainable peace and development.
