The Executive Governor of Plateau State, Caleb Mutfwang, has thanked President Bola Tinubu for his assistance to state-owned security outfits.
The governor made the remarks during the handing out of 600 Plateau State security personnel from Operation Rainbow in Jos on Wednesday.
The Plateau Governor, who was represented by his deputy, Ngo Josephine Piyo, said, “It is my pleasure to be here for the passing out parade of the Neighborhood Watch Operatives of Operation Rainbow.
“Today, we are witnessing the passing out of a crop of 600 gallant operatives who were carefully selected out of the numerous citizens of Plateau State.
“I wish to commend the Coordinator of Operation Rainbow, the Special Adviser on Security, the Chief Security Officer, and other security agencies who, within this short period, transformed, tutored, and nurtured these young operatives into the end products that we see before us today.
“From the reports I have received and the parade we witnessed today, there is ample evidence that these soon-to-be gallant security officials have been put through the mills and have come out refined and ready to contribute their quota to the state’s effort to secure lives and property in our dear state.”
Earlier, the Coordinator of Operation Rainbow, AIG Bashir Dabup Makama (retd), stated that the organization was formed in accordance with the Plateau State Rainbow and Neighborhood Watch Law 2012, which was passed by the state House of Assembly.
