President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, has commended the Commissioner of Police in Akwa Ibom State, Baba Azare, and his men for their efforts in maintaining peace and security across the state.
Akpabio, in a statement issued on Sunday in Abuja by his Special Assistant on Media, Mr. Jackson Udom, lauded the police chief’s leadership and collaboration with other security agencies, describing their synergy as vital to the state’s stability.
The commendation was made while Akpabio commissioned newly built and fully furnished Police Quarters at Nto Ndang in Obot Akara Local Government Area of the state.
“I commend the Commissioner of Police, Baba Azare, for doing a good job in the state,” Akpabio said. “Nothing is too much for our security agencies. As they secure us, they deserve a comfortable living environment.”
The Senate President further assured security operatives of his unwavering support, particularly regarding their welfare and working conditions. He stressed that improving their living and working standards was a priority to ensure optimal service delivery.
“Our aim is to train officers not only for Nigeria’s security but also for global standards,” he noted.
Akpabio also revealed that President Bola Tinubu had approved the establishment of a Police College for cadet officer training. According to him, construction works on the facility have already commenced, with plans underway to admit the first set of cadet officers before the end of the year.
