Nasarawa State Governor, Abdullahi Sule, has distributed 42 utility vehicles to security agencies, traditional rulers, ministries, departments and agencies in the state to facilitate their activities.
The recent donation by the governor brought the total number of operational vehicles distributed to security agencies and traditional rulers to 129.
While distributing the 42 vehicles to the beneficiaries yesterday at the Government House, the governor said the donation of the vehicles was aimed at assisting the security agencies in flushing out criminal elements in the state.
He noted that the idea was to enable the security agencies in the state to carry out their routine operations.
Sule said: “Recently, the state was informed about a possible attack by some criminal elements. But the government acted on the information and shut down public schools across the state as part of plans to curtail the possible attack on public schools.
