The Insector-General of Police (IG), Mr. Mohammed Adamu, on Monday pledged his commitment to the ongoing reforms in the Nigeria Police Force
especially as it concerns the activities of the Federal Anti-robbery Squad (FSARS) and other special tactical Units of the Force.
The IG made this known during a courtesy call on him by the Minister of Youth and Sports, Mr. Sunday Dare at the Force Headquarters in Abuja.
The IG called on Nigerians to exercise patience as the reforms are still in progress, noting that all the already announced measures aimed at checkmating a future occurrence of extra-judicial activities by some personnel of FSARS and other tactical units of the Force will be implemented to the letter.
The Police boss, reiterates that some of the officers who have been found to be unruly and unprofessional in their dealings with the citizens, particularly the youth, have been arrested and are already facing disciplinary actions.
In his remarks, the Minister commended the IG for his prompt response in tackling the issues and called for stronger collaboration and mutual understanding between the Police and the youth. He also called for regular town hall meetings at various State Commands which will involve the Police Spokespersons, Civil Society Organisations (CSO) and other critical stakeholders to strengthen the synergy between the police and the citizens, especially the youth.
