New CP promises synergy with NSCDC to combat crime in Oyo

The new Commissioner of Police, Oyo State Command, Adebola Hamzat, has reiterated the need for collaboration with the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) towards combating insecurity in the state.

CP Adebola Hamzat stated this on Thursday during a familiarisation visit to the NSCDC command in the state at its headquarters in Agodi, Ibadan.

According to the civil defence spokeswoman, Oyindamola Okuneye, in a statement, the 45th Commissioner of Police in the state appreciated the warm reception he received from the command, reaffirming the commitment of the Nigeria Police Force to continue working with Civil Defence and other sister agencies in the state for positive results.

He further enjoined the two agencies to work in unison without rivalry towards enhancing adequate security of lives and property in the state.

In response, the Oyo State Commandant of the NSCDC, Dr Michael Adaralewa, commended the new Commissioner of Police for the trust reposed in NSCDC and assured him of the Corps’ readiness to partner with the police, especially in information gathering geared towards tackling insecurity in the state.

Commandant Adaralewa seized the opportunity to admonish the residents of the state to always furnish the two sister agencies with credible information that would help in nipping crime in the bud.
