It added that in the same vein, the IGP has called on the Nigeria Police spokespersons, at the 2022 Police Public Relations Officers’ Conference currently ongoing in Ibadan, Oyo State, to develop and implement a productive Strategic Communication Action Plan that will give leverage to the already established operational drives of the Police to have a free, fair and credible election in 2023.

According to it, “the IGP, who spoke through the Deputy Inspector-General of Police in charge of the Force Criminal Investigations Department (FCID), DIG Johnson Babatunde Kokumo admonished the Police PROs to exhibit their skills in strategic communication to stem the pockets of electoral conflicts and violence being experienced across the country, as such could be a general panacea for security challenges in Nigeria.”

The PPROs Conference themed ‘Strengthening Strategic Communication Towards 4Police Reforms, Security and Integrity of 2023 Election’, which the opening ceremony held at Kakanfo Inn, Ibadan on Monday, December 12, 2022, would come to a close on Thursday.
