Having obtained briefs from the command’s departmental heads, Kano State was carefully studied, demographically crime-mapped and an Action Plan was analytically designed to effectively Police the State.

“I have lectured the Command’s Departmental Heads, Area Commanders, Divisional Police Officers (DPOs), Tactical Commanders and other Supervisory Officers to work in accordance with the provisions of the Police Act 2020, the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, and also key into the policing mission and vision of the Inspector General of Police to “restore Police primacy and bequeath to the Nation a modernized, citizen-led, rule of law guided and professional Police Force that Nigerians can truly trust and depend on to achieve the Policing mandate enshrined in Section 4 and 5 of the Nigeria Police Act, 2020”, and “give full effect to the concept of Citizen-led Policing by deepening the implementation of Community Policing strategy, addressing ethical and professional issues that impact on trust and partnership between the Police and the Public, and embrace the content of policing in which Police Officers see themselves as compassionate servants of the citizen”.
