Inspector-General of Police Mohammed Adamu on Monday said the Police can’t be everywhere, at the same time.
Adamu stated this in Gombe during the state inauguration of the Community Policing Advisory Committee, which will be co-chaired by the Emir of Gombe, Sheu Abubakar, and the state Police Commissioner, Maikudi Sheu.
He said, “I consider this timely and very crucial. The Nigeria Police Force has continued to emphasise that while the police cannot be everywhere, our communities are found everywhere. Consequently, safety and security will be better guaranteed when and where members of the communities are actively involved in crime prevention and community safety.
He added that the emerging crime trend warranted the community policing strategy which, according to him, is citizen-centered.
