The police training school in Nonwa, Tai Local Government Area of Rivers State is in a pathetic state and the environment an eyesore.

The shabby state of the school propelled the executive secretary of the Nigeria Police Trust Fund, NPTF, to call for a state of emergency on the campus when he visited.

When #awajisgeorgenews monitored the deplorable state of the school, it was observed that police officers living in the quarters, use buckets and plastic drums to shield their rooms from getting flooded from leaking roofs when it rains.
