The Commissioner of Police for Delta State, CP Wale Abass, has instructed a significant placement of police officers throughout the entire state to ensure ample security ahead of, during, and after the yuletide festivities.
The State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Bright Edafe, conveyed this directive in a statement issued on Saturday in Asaba, the state capital. Edafe mentioned that the police chief specifically ordered all Area Commanders, Divisional Police Officers, and Tactical Commanders to deploy their personnel to ensure the safety of all residents.
“The CP stated that the police would be undertaking operations throughout the state, focusing on visible policing at all celebration locations, particularly shopping centres and other resort areas.
“Similarly, the police will focus on special crime awareness and prevention operations, as well as targeting crimes common over the festive season
“Conclusively, CP Wale Abass urges members of the public to remain alert and aware of their surroundings at all times to avoid being easy prey for crooks who may want to take advantage of this period, which is typically marked by social gatherings and festivities,” Edasfe stated
The PPRO added that the CP “further advised the public to be law-abiding, and also nurture an active participation in community policing so that they can be instrumental to the police in the fight against crime during the festive season and beyond.”
“The Commissioner of Police, on behalf of officers and men of the Command, wishes all Deltans and residents of the state a hitch-free celebration, assuring that the command was actively ready for the festivities; hence, anyone with criminal intent will be squeezed out of the state,” the statement noted.
