The Police Community Relations Committee has pledged to mobilise 10,000 volunteers to support the Safe Schools Initiative as part of efforts to boost security in schools nationwide.

The organisation also promised to provide CCTV cameras for installation in schools, particularly those located in remote and vulnerable communities.

According to the PCRC, the initiative followed engagements with Parent-Teacher Associations and community leaders and would see the committee collaborate with the police and other security agencies to strengthen safety around school premises.

The National President of the PCRC, Mogaji Olaniyan, disclosed this when the Force Public Relations Officer visited the PCRC National Secretariat in Abuja on Friday.
