Newly appointed Federal Capital Territory Police Commissioner Olatunji Disu has acknowledged the security challenges facing Nigeria’s capital and pledged to work tirelessly towards improved security.
Speaking during his inauguration as the 32nd Commissioner of Police in the FCT on Monday, Disu pledged to implement a strict zero-tolerance policy against all forms of crime and criminal behaviour.
Disu said: “As I assume this role, I am acutely aware of the security challenges facing the FCT and the foundational work laid by my predecessors to maintain relative peace.
“I am committed to building upon this groundwork and enhancing our efforts to significantly improve the security situation in our territory.
“To those who seek to disrupt the tranquillity of the FCT, I send a clear and resolute message: my tenure will be marked by a zero-tolerance approach to all forms of crime and criminality.
“We will not waver in our commitment to safeguarding our community, ensuring that law enforcement is both effective and respectful of the rights of all citizens.
“I also aim to strengthen our partnerships with local organisations, community leaders, and other stakeholders.
“Together, we will foster trust and collaborate on innovative strategies to address the security concerns that affect our residents.
“Your insights and feedback will be invaluable as we navigate these challenges together, and we will actively encourage feedback from members of the public to refine our approach.
“We will leverage modern technology to aid our policing efforts, utilising tools such as data analytics and surveillance systems to enhance our operational efficiency and response times.
“Also, our intelligence-gathering capabilities will be crucial in preemptively addressing potential threats and criminal activities.”
