The National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure (NASENI) has expressed its commitment to refurbish and revamp redundant operational assets of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) such as vehicles, helicopters, and confiscated and forfeited vehicles.

This is part of moves to support the Police Force in boosting its operational capacity to improve the security situation in the country.

The Executive Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of NASENI, KHALIL SULEIMAN HALILU made the pledge during a meeting with the Inspector General of Police (IGP) KAYODE EGBETOKUN when he paid him a visit at the Force Headquarters.

The NASENI boss said the Agency would mobilise and deploy financial and technical resources needed to retool, upgrade, and modernise the NPF vehicle maintenance workshops nationwide as well as recover, repair and reactivate all police vehicles that are not functional.

In his remarks, the IGP said the collaboration between NASENI and the NPF will go a long way in impacting positively on the operations of the Police Force, its security architecture and overall service delivery.

EGBETOKUN further assured of the cooperation of the NPF towards providing the necessary support to NASENI to deliver on its mandate.
