Mr. Ajao Saka Adewale the Federal Capital Territory Police Command Commissioner of Police commenced activities to commemorate National Police Day 2025 with a three-day Community Outreach from April 3rd to 5th, 2025.
This year’s theme, “Say NO to Crime,” underscores the collective responsibility of both law enforcement and the public in tackling issues such as cultism, drug abuse, sexual-based violence, cybercrime, kidnapping, and other social vices.
As part of this initiative, Day One was dedicated to a Clean-Up Exercise, emphasizing the importance of a clean and safe environment in fostering security and community development. Saka Ajao led officers and men of the Abuja Police Command on a clean-up exercise at Lagos Street, Garki, and the Palace of the Sa’peyi of Garki. This exercise highlights the command’s commitment to community engagement beyond law enforcement duties.
The Abuja Police Boss expressed his gratitude to Mr. Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun the Inspector General of Police for his visionary leadership and commitment to community policing. He noted that the IGP’s efforts in modernizing and reforming the Nigeria Police Force continue to inspire officers to build stronger relationships with the communities they serve.
He then urged all residents to actively participate in this outreach and remain vigilant. Security is a shared responsibility, and the police encourage the public to report any suspicious activities through the emergency lines: 08032003913, 08028940883.
