We are the first time when it comes to justice.’

‘You will agree with me that the public perception has a lot to do with our work. There is a lot that the public can do to enhance what the police is doing.

There is a lot to be done to bridge the gap between the police and the public. When the public have confidence in the police, it is to our advantage.’

The efforts at curbing insecurity in Nigeria involves all and sundry.

It requires that all hands must be on deck.

The police hierarchy is leaving no stone unturned.

‘The current Police administration under the IGP Usman Alkali Baba has embarked on reorientation of our men to ensure that the gap between the police and the public is filled.

It takes collective effort of all citizens to police a society.

In this modern time, we need the collaboration between police and public’, ACP Agboola informed.
