Governor Ikpeazu expressed joy that the CPAMS conceptualized by his administration has become a reality expressing the hope that the system will be capable of providing solutions to policing not only in Abia State, but Nigeria as a whole.
According to Governor Ikpeazu, Proactive policing requires that a crime officer must be ahead of criminals adding that except through digitalisation, time will come when police officers will find it difficult to cope with new waves of criminal activities.
The Governor stated that with diligent implementation of CPAMS in Abia State, it will be difficult for a criminal to be a first offender whereas he has criminal records.
Dr Ikpeazu also said that with the system, community participation with the police will become easier while reward system for diligent officers will also be done with ease. He announced that through the Ministry of Homeland Security , his government will provide solar powered systems in all Police Stations in the State as well as provide computers to all Police Divisions including the office of the Inspector General of police, Deputy Inspector General of Police and the Commissioner of Police for easy coordination of the scheme.
The Coordinator Abia CPAMS, Endi Ezengwa said CPAMS which is a Crime Prevention and Management System is the first of its kind in Nigeria and has the capacity to deter criminals and improve community access to the police and instill confidence among the people ..
