The Commissioner of Police, Anambra State Command, Nnanna Ama, has introduced a strategic monitoring mechanism to closely supervise police checkpoints, patrol teams and other operational activities across the State.
The initiative follows feedback received during the recent Anambra Security Stakeholders’ Interactive Sessions across the three Senatorial Districts.
It is aimed at strengthening effective policing, accountability and professionalism, while eliminating extortion, harassment and other forms of abuse against the public by police personnel.
The Commissioner of Police stressed that the Command remains committed to providing effective security and protecting the lives and property of residents of Anambra State.
He further directed all Area Commanders, Divisional Police Officers and Tactical Team Commanders to ensure strict compliance with the instruction on the monitoring of the operations of officers under them warning that any personnel found engaging in extortion or other forms of misconduct will face appropriate disciplinary action.
