” I must state that the police cannot do it alone, no matter how well trained, equipped or motivated without the support of the community that we are engaged to serve.
“I therefore, urge the full support of the civil populace, youth associations, traditional rulers, market bodies, cultural associations, and religious leaders among others to put all hands on deck for the achievement of this all important task,” he added.
He charged the operatives to see their deployment as a call to national duty.
“You are therefore, required to ensure that justice is served in all your operations and to also ensure that you deal ruthlessly with criminal elements that may attempt to take the risk of testing your will or might while carrying out your legal assignment,” the CP said.
Muri assured the personnel that their welfare would be given priority.
“I must inform you that the I-G has made adequate provisions for you during the exercise and this is why no compromise of any kind by any police officer engaged in this operation will be taken lightly by the police authority,” he added.
