The Minister of Interior, OLUBUNMI TUNJI-OJO, has pledged to join the call for the Nigeria Hunters and Forest Security Service (NHFSS) Bill to be signed into law.

He said once it is achieved, the service would be quickly integrated into the federal security apparatus.

The Minister said this when he hosted the management of NHFSS in Abuja led by the Commander General of the Service, Dr JOSHUA OSATIMEHIN.

While receiving the NHFSS top officials, the Minister commended the selfless efforts of the service towards curbing crimes and criminalities, especially acts perpetrated within the forests.

He said that Nigerians and the federal government are aware of the exploits of officers and men of the NHFSS who he said are complimenting the efforts of the Police, the Military and other relevant stakeholders.

TUNJI-OJO pledged to join other well-meaning Nigerians including policymakers and traditional rulers in the call for the NHFSS Bill to be signed into law.
