The management of Delvs Services, Publisher of Africa Update newspaper and Springpoint magazine, organizer of the award event, said the decision to reduce the award categories was due to tthe devastating impact of the novel coronavirus.
Gloria Boma Harry, the Chief Executive Officer of Delvs Services told newsmen that her team decided to recognize some individuals and security agencies whose actions and policies aimed at providing essential services to the public, constantly expose their officers to harm including the deadly coronavirus.
She observed that without the selfless services of these patriotic officers, social and economic activities would suffer untold setbacks. She however stressed that the activities of a few officers have in recent times led to some misgivings but the actions of others have led to the creation of the special service award category.
