Breaking: KDSG flags off training of 7,000 recruits into KADVS.

Remarks by Governor Uba Sani of Kaduna State st the commencement of training of 7,000  recruits of the Kaduna Vigilante Service (KADVIS) on Saturday, September 2, 2023 at the Police College, Kaduna

Protocols;

It is a great privilege for me to be here for the commencement of the training of 7,000 recruits of the Kaduna Vigilance Service (KADVS). The recruits are drawn from all the local governments of Kaduna State.

The commencement of this training is a major step towards fulfilling our promise to the good people of Kaduna State. In our administration’s BLUEPRINT, we committed to strengthening the manpower and overall operational capacity of KADVS.

Since its establihsment, KADVS has been working with security agencies to degrade criminal elements. But we face the challenge of inadequate personnel to successfully wage the battle against bandits and other criminal elements. It is for this reason that our administration decided to recruit 7,000 personnel into the Kaduna Vigilance Service (KADVS).

The recruitment and screening of the trainees was the collaborative efforts of our local government chairmen, traditional and religious leaders, key stakeholders at the grassroots level, and Security Agencies. The screening was very thorough. We have here energetic young men and women of transparent honesty who are committed to securing our local communities.

The Kaduna Vigilance Service is a complementary security outfit. It will assist the Security Agencies with actionable intelligence. With its knowledge of the local environment, bandits will have no hiding place.

To the recruits who are starting their training today, I charge you to show seriousness and commitment. Listen to your instructors and be disciplined. I am confident that you will all be found worthy of been enlisted in the Kaduna Vigilance Service (KADVS).

I must however warn that when you are eventually enlisted into the Service and you start carrying out your duties, you must desist from violating the rights of the citizens. KADVS was  set up to protect the people, not to violate their rights. We shall not hesitate to discipline any person that flouts the operational guidelines or code of conduct of the Service.

My special appreciation goes to our traditional and religious leaders, local government chairmen, the Commissioner of Police, Kaduna State, the State Director of DSS, Commandant of the Police College, Kaduna, and other heads of security agencies for their unwavering support to KADVS. I also thank the Commander of KADVS for his leadership.

While wishing the trainees success, it is now my honour and privilege to flag off the training of recruits into the Kaduna Vigilance Service (KADVS). God bless you all.
