“Thus, we seek a robust police public partnership in the continuous fight against criminal elements, as the quest of securing the society is everybody’s business.

“The command, during the period under review, is not unmindful of the security challenges bedevilling the state, amongst which are banditry, kidnappings, armed robbery and farmers/herders clashes, just to mention but a few.
“However, remarkable efforts were not spared in addressing the situation which culminates into the relative peace currently being enjoyed by law-abiding citizens in the state.”
