The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Olatunji Rilwan Disu, on Thursday received a high-powered delegation from the Police Community Relations Committee (PCRC) on a courtesy visit at the Force Headquarters, Abuja.
The PCRC delegation was led by its National Chairman, Alhaji Mogaji Ibraheem Olaniyan, and included key members of the National Executive Committee and representatives from various regional commands.
Force Public Relations Officer, DCP Anthony Okon Placid, who confirmed the visit, said Alhaji Olaniyan congratulated the IGP on his recent appointment and reaffirmed the PCRC’s unwavering loyalty and support for the Nigeria Police Force. He praised IGP Disu for his continued recognition of the committee’s strategic role in enhancing national security.
In his response, IGP Disu expressed gratitude for the PCRC’s sustained partnership with the Force. He assured the delegation of the Police’s full cooperation and commitment to a fruitful relationship.
The Inspector-General, however, charged the PCRC leadership to ensure strict oversight of its members, warning that PCRC identification cards must be used only for legitimate purposes and intelligence gathering. He emphasized the need for members to remain exemplary citizens to protect the integrity of the partnership.
DCP Anthony Okon Placid stated that the engagement underscored the commitment of the Nigeria Police Force to fostering strong community relations and collaborative security efforts nationwide.
The visit is seen as a significant step in strengthening police-community synergy as the new IGP continue to build on existing partnerships.
