The Force Public Relations officer (PPRO), ACP, Olabisi Kolawole, who said this at the entrepreneurship summit organised by the Africa Shapers Initiatives in Lagos, noted that the call has become necessary following increasing security threats facing the world.
  
The PPRO, who spoke on Renewed Security for Thriving Entrepreneurship, observed that the rise of small and medium scale enterprises have called for a rethink of personal security.
