Governor Adams Oshiomole of Edo state today donated N14million
(N2million each) to seven
police officer's widows who died in the line of duty. Addressing the
women, the governor said he was moved by their plight as well as the
great service their husbands gave to the state. He also announced
that N500,000 would be given to each of the children of the seven
police
officers.
The Governor said he hoped this act would help spur other
police officers who are still in active force to be more dedicated to
their duties so that posterity would remember them for good.
