“The Nigeria Police has executed an MOU with Skytick International Limited. The company under the MOU is obliged to raise the required funds to construct, purchase and install all needed equipment, including the helicopter and drones, for the effective operation of the project throughout the country. “The company, with the full compliment of the Police, will operate the NPBS for a period of 20 years before handing over to the Nigeria Police.”The Nigeria Police is only obligated, under the MOU, to provide land in the 36 states and the FCT for construction of the television and radio stations,” Akpe stated. Deputy Inspector General of Police (DIG), Mr. Joshak Habila, stated that the Force was optimistic that the initiative would be a success, given the calibre of people involved in the implementation. He added that stations would further improve the work of the Police regarding security of lives and properties.”Through NPBS‎, we are going to do our best to effect and educate people on security and protection of lives and properties, especially those in the oil and crime zones,” he added.
