In the spirit of the ongoing Police Week celebration, the Akwa Ibom State Police Command, under the leadership of the Commissioner of Police, CP Baba Mohammed Azare, fsi, expresses profound appreciation to the good and peace-loving people of Akwa Ibom State for their unwavering support, cooperation, and partnership with the Police.
A statement signed by the command public relations officer DSP Timfon John said the Command notes that the remarkable successes recorded in crime prevention, intelligence gathering, and operational breakthroughs across the State are largely attributable to the trust, timely information, and collaboration extended by members of the public, community leaders, youths, and other critical stakeholders. This synergy has significantly strengthened the Command’s capacity to protect lives and property and maintain public order.
As Police Week continues to serve as a period of reflection, community engagement, and renewed commitment to professional policing, the Command reassures residents of its resolve to sustain and improve on the gains recorded. The Command remains firmly committed to intelligence-led policing, enhanced visibility patrols, and proactive operational strategies aimed at ensuring a safe and secure environment for all.
While appreciating the overwhelming support received, the Command issues a strong and unequivocal warning to all criminal elements: Akwa Ibom State is hostile to crime. Individuals involved in cultism, kidnapping, armed robbery, drug trafficking, and other criminal activities are hereby advised to desist immediately or vacate the State.
The Command will continue to deploy all lawful and strategic measures to identify, apprehend, and prosecute offenders. There will be zero tolerance for criminality, and anyone found culpable will face the full wrath of the law.
The Akwa Ibom State Police Command therefore calls on all residents to remain vigilant and continue to support security agencies with credible and timely information, as security remains a collective responsibility.
Together, we will continue to build a safer, stronger, and more secure Akwa Ibom State.
