Do you know you can now call police immediately you spot any criminal or illegal activity in your area from wherever you are? Yes you can before they get close to you, your neighbors, house etc and they will appear without wasting time.
Imo state police command is not laughing with law breakers
and they are ready to wide them all out. In order to achieve that, they have
launched what they call operation Nkpochapu (wipe out criminals)
The Commissioner of Police, Taiwo Lakanu, made the official
disclosure of this operation at the council headquarters of traditional rulers
in Owerri, the Imo state capital.
The commissioner said , under Operation Nkpochapu, the state
has been crime-mapped and all red and black spots have been identified and put
under serious observation as other covert strategies had also been put in place
to checkmate criminals in the state.
Mr. Taiwo, also unveiled a new pamphlet and phone directory
that contains the phone numbers of officers and men of the command who work
round the clock for quick response and immediate actions.
He said, the idea would aid communication, quick response and
also enhance good police-civilian relationship.
Over 500 traditional rulers from various communities across
Imo State gathered at their council headquarters to receive the leadership of
the Imo State Police Command.
Channels TV reported, that CP Lakanu, while appealing to the
traditional rulers as custodians of laws and culture to use their good office
and speak to their wards to desist from crime. He asked for their continued
support and cooperation through giving adequate tip-off and information that
will help the Police succeed.
The Chairman of the Imo State Council of Traditional Rulers,
Samuel Ohiri, commended the command for the initiative.
He said that it would go a long way to build a robust
relationship between the people and the Police and consequently help reduce the
rate of crime in the state.
I think this is a good idea and it is better you share to
alert other Imo residents. What do you think? A welcome development?
