With over 30 years of exemplary service in the Nigeria Police Force, including roles as Commissioner of Police in charge of Armament and DIG of the Force Criminal Intelligence and Investigations Department, DIG Kokumo brings a wealth of experience in crime prevention, security management, operational leadership and expertise directly relevant to combating illicit arms proliferation.

The highpoint of the ceremony was the official signing of handover notes and transfer of documents between the outgoing and incoming national coordinators.

“The National Centre for the Control of Small Arms and Light Weapons remains committed to its mission of eradicating the menace of illicit small arms and light weapons proliferation in Nigeria, and looks forward to achieving even greater milestones under the leadership of Kokumo,” the statement reads.

The ceremony, held at the National Coordinator’s Conference Room, was attended by the centre’s management team, including the deputy national coordinator, directors and zonal coordinators.
