In a bold move to combat criminal activities in Anambra State, Governor Charles Soludo has established the Special Anambra Anti-Touting Squad (SASA). This newly formed unit aims to eliminate various forms of criminal activities such as one-chance robbery, drug abuse, handbag snatching, and illegal extortion of traders across markets in the state, particularly in Onitsha and its surrounding areas.

The Director of SASA, Hon Solomon Chukwuebuka Onwuemene, recently addressed the media in Awka, where he highlighted the positive impact of the anti-touting squad since its inception. He stated that reports of illegal extortion, one-chance robbery, handbag snatching, and other criminal incidents have decreased by fifteen percent in markets across the state.

Governor Soludo's administration is determined to restore law and order in Anambra, with a specific focus on Onitsha and its environs. The establishment of the anti-touting squad is a crucial step towards achieving this goal. The squad's primary objective is to ensure zero tolerance for touting in the state and create a pleasurable experience for pedestrians and commercial activities on the streets, roads, and markets.

Touting has had a detrimental effect on the growth and development of Onitsha, hence the urgent need to eradicate this menace. Governor Soludo aims to revive the traditional values that Anambra was once known for and restore the state's reputation as the Light of the Nation.

The Soludo administration has also prioritized youth empowerment programs. The ongoing "One Youth, Two Skills Empowerment Programme" has already lifted over five thousand youths from the streets in just two years. This initiative will continue to provide great opportunities for the youth of Anambra.

The SASA boss assured continuous collaboration with other security agencies to maintain a peaceful environment in the state. He urged individuals involved in touting and criminal activities to embrace the state government's empowerment programs, enabling them to become productive members of society and contribute to their families and communities.

Residents of Anambra State are encouraged to pray for Governor Soludo as he works towards his vision of creating a livable and prosperous state. With the establishment of the anti-touting squad, Anambra is taking a stand against criminal activities, ensuring the safety and well-being of its citizens.
