THE Niger Government has donated 10 Toyota Hilux vehicles to the Police Command in the state to enhance security of lives and property in the area.
The Commissioner of Police, Dibal Yakadi , disclosed this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) shortly after distributing the vehicles to some selected divisional police officers under the command.
Yakadi said provision of operational vehicles and communication facilities would also enhance the performance of officers and men of the command.
He urged residents of the state to support the command with useful and timely information to forestall criminal activities.
He said criminal activities would only be curbed if residents volunteered information to the police on any suspicious persons or acts in their environment.
He said that already effective operational order had been issued to the divisional police officers on how to deal with any form of security threats.
“ Stakeholders should support and partner with the police by mobilising residents to volunteer information that could aid in apprehending bad elements in their midst.
” We have since reached out to traditional and religious leaders in mobilising residents to be security conscious at all times by reporting dubious characters in their communities to the appropriate authority,” the commissioner said. (NAN)
