Inspector General of Police Mr. Solomon Arase has urged policemen to build a mutual friendship and confidence with the public to enable them carry out their duties successful.
He gave the directive in Dutse, the Jigawa State capital, while addressing his men and officers during his working visit to the state.
The police boss warned policemen to avoid any immoral acts capable of affecting the image of the police negatively.
Modern policing, he said, required policemen to build public confidence in themselves and police institutions as well as get closer to the people by educating them on the role everyone should play to ensure a peaceful and secured society.
He emphasised that “to have a secure and happiest society, officers most build synergy with groups, such as students’ unions, traditional institutions, market women, football clubs, youth groups and others to enable them get information of any happening in the environment”.
Arase added that “constant flow of information from society to police institution was what makes policing easy and successful”.
He assured his men and officers that he would continue to explore and initiate policies and programmes to enhance the police service and social life of the officers during and after service.
Arase said: “I have much concern for my junior officers, particularly from inspectors down to the rank-and-file. In view of that, I introduced scholarship scheme for their children. And our housing scheme accorded them special priority.”
