New DPO Vows To Work With Stakeholders

Poised to flush out criminals from the area, the new Okporo Divisional Police Officer (DPO), Abubakar Umar, has said that it is committed to working with all stakeholders.
Umar said this informed his decision to visit stakeholders on arrival to chart a definite and sustainable path towards uncompromising and consistent fight against crime.
He spoke on his preparedness as the new Okporo Okwurusi Kingdom Divisional Police Officer recently.
The Okporo Divisional Police Officer said the courtesy call on relevant stakeholders particularly the traditional rulers, Community Development Committees, youth bodies and women leaders was geared towards continuous improvement on security of lives and property.
He, however, said that the division had put in place machinery to ensure that residents had nothing to worry over security.
“Security  is everyone’s business, hence, the need to familiarise myself with Okporo Okwurusi stakeholders so that we can partner to wipe away crime which is a mutual enemy. Their support is needed because they know the terrain better and will be willing to share vital information with us. I am comfortable with the position of stakeholders”.
He further warned criminal elements in the area to steer clear or get ready to face dire consequences for their unlawful actions.
