Delta Assembly moves to repeal outdated Security Law

Delta State House of Assembly has moved for a new bill to repeal outdated security law governing the Delta State Community Security Corps Agency.

During the plenary on Tuesday, Chairman of the Joint Committees on Special Bills and Peace and Security, Hon. Emeka Nwaobi alongside committee members upheld the need to replace the outdated legislation with a more robust legal framework, noting that the new law would enhance security and accountability in community policing.

Among the groups that made this call was the Delta Online Publishers Forum (DOPF), which advocated for a comprehensive overhaul of the law to reflect contemporary needs in community security.

Meanwhile, Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Emomotimi Dennis Guwor, congratulated the board, management, and staff of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) on the Commission’s 25th anniversary.

Guwor also lauded the exceptional performance of Delta State students who represented Nigeria at the World School Debate Championship held in Doha, Qatar, attributing their success to the educational policies of the Oborevwori-led administration.
