“In the same vain, the Kebbi State Police Command under my watch, will continue to organise workshops, seminars and conferences, not only in the areas of investigation and prosecution of cases, but in civility to members of the public, crowd control, and others.
“This is with a view to refreshing the memories of personnel to discharge their duties effectively, most especially during the forthcoming 2023 General Elections.”
The Commissioner assured facilitators and participants that the command would do all within its powers to ensure a conducive environment for cross fertilisation of ideas, as well as robust discussions.
He advised the participants to take advantage of the opportunity the training offered, by acquiring knowledge and utilising it in order to move the command and the Police to greater heights.
