The Prince Abubakar Audu University (PAAU) Anyigba has approved a comprehensive restructuring of its security system and appointed retired CSP, Israel Ayegba, as the new Chief Security Coordinator, (CSC).

The new CSC is to develop a comprehensive security framework, advise Management on policies and strategies, coordinate operations, and ensure greater efficiency in the institution’s security system.
Ayegba served over 35 years in the Nigerian Police Force, where he served has DPO, and was personal aide to two former IGPs.
