In a statement issued by the Command’s spokesperson, SP Ikenga Tochukwu, the Police emphasized that residents play a crucial role in assisting law enforcement agencies to maintain peace, prevent criminal activities, and ensure public safety.

Consequently, the Command urges residents not to lose hope but to remain alert and collaborate with security agencies in exposing individuals who continue to engage in criminal behavior.

By doing so, the public can significantly support the efforts of the Police in maintaining law and order, preventing criminal acts, and ensuring the safety of all.”
