The new Joint Task Force Commander and top officers took the message to the Bayelsa Government House when he met with Governor Seriake Dickson.
There were more security issues and partnership to discuss when the new Air Officer Commanding Mobility Command, Air Vice Marshal Peter Uzezi met with the Bayelsa Governor.
