The acting Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, on Wednesday, assumed office at the Force Headquarters, Abuja, noting that policing under his watch will be technology-driven, just as he promised improved welfare for policemen.
“We will provide support structures for police officers that would cater for their physical, and psychological needs. We will introduce programmes to strengthen the minds and hearts of every officer. We will secure the nation,” he said.
He also appealed to Nigerians to support the police in the fight against criminal activities, while noting that he hopes to build a stronger inter-agency collaboration and deepen the technology approach to guaranteeing internal security.
