Dr. Godwin Maduka, a medical practitioner and philanthropist, who disclosed this said the institution would provide opportunity for the youths to join the Police Force and help generate employment for people of the South East geo-political zone.

Conducting officials of the Police Service Commission at the site of the college, Maduka explained that land had also been provided for a Police Academy for the area, adding that construction work would soon begin on the two institutions.

Maduka said he decided to attract the project to Umuchukwu as a way of helping youths in the area to gain employment as a way of fighting corruption in the society

According to him, the institutions would be sited on a 50-hectare piece of land which he procured from the community, expressing delight that officials of the commission were satisfied with the location and the preliminary work already done.

Leader of the delegation, Mr. Okey Johnson Imoatu, an Architect, who is the chief consultant to the Police Service Commission commended Maduka for the donation.
