2023: Police officers urged to remain civil, professional in Bauchi 
The police commissioner in Bauchi, Umar Sanda, has urged officers to remain professional, civil and neutral while enforcing laws.
Mr Sanda made the call in a statement on Thursday, calling on area commanders, tactical commanders and divisional police officers to remain civil, neutral and professional while enforcing laws.
The police chief also urged officers to boost the security of the public to guarantee a crime-free society and an enabling environment for the 2023 general elections.
“There will be an increase in the speed of visibility policing, improved inter-agency partnership and intelligence sharing and confidence-building patrols,” he stated. “Joint convoy patrols, intelligence-led policing, surveillance activities and stop-and-search at strategic points across the state.”
Mr Sanda added that the command would create a level field for all political parties and candidates to organise rallies and campaigns to canvas support.
The police commissioner also urged political parties, candidates, groups and individuals to respect the rule of law and work towards maintaining law and order and peaceful coexistence during and after the elections.
