Imo State Police commissioner, CP Danjuma Aboki, has assured that the Police would enhance synergy and collaboration with the Police Community Relations Committee (PCRC) to strengthen ties with members of the public.
CP Aboki stated this at the official grand opening/handover of a PCRC, “Charlvon Transit Camp” at the Senior Police Officers Mess in Owerri.
The Transit Camp was constructed by the grand patron of the State Chapter, PCRC, Chief Charles Amadi.
Aboki noted that the PCRC in the state was resolutely doing her best to strengthen cordial relationship between the police and members of the public through sensitisation programmes just as the members had consistently remained unperturbed amidst occasional insults from some erring police constables.
The police boss hailed the chairman of the committee, Chima Chukwunyere and the grand patron, Charles Amadi as patriots who have written their names in gold through selfless services to humanity and enjoined them to sustain the spirit.
Handing over the ultra-modern transit camp to Aboki, Chief Amadi explained that it was meant to alleviate some of the challenges confronting officers and men of the command.
He commended the state chairman of the PCRC Chima Chukwunyere for bringing up the idea to construct the structure and assured that he would ensure regular support to the command.
The national chairman of the PCRC, Alhaji Mugaji Ibrahim, represented by the national organising secretary of the body, Chukwuaja David noted that the initiation and completion of the project had positioned the PCRC in the state as a pacesetter in the southeast which would hopefully be emulated by other state chapters.
State chairman of the PCRC, Chima Chukwunyere, also known as Chief Servant of the committee, disclosed that he had so far offered free hotel accommodations to police officers on transit in the state to the tune of N7 million.
He stressed that the PCRC had carried out sensitisation and public enlightenment campaigns in a number of post primary schools in the state on the damages of cultism.
