We commend the AIG in Charge if Zone 2, Commissioner of Police of Ogun State (commissioner Ahmed Iliyasu) & our Distinguished CSP @Opetodolapo for their professionalism & cooperation in the past months leading to a peaceful yuletide with huge reduction in crime/abuses.
If you took notice of their compliance to our counsel on illegal parade of suspects that creates an air of guilt before conviction by a competent court, Zone 2 led the way by ensuring faces of culprits/suspects are no longer revealed in such parades. #NoMediaTrial
There are many improvements in the past 6months in Zone 2 thanks to these patriots despite the fact that the reforms are yet to fully kick in but we are witnessing conscious efforts towards improvements already by he leadership. Thank you for your service Distinguished.
This is however a work in progress. We are not there yet and a lot still have to be done on the part of government, the police and the citizenry to ensure we make the Police institution independent and strengthen the criminal justice system. #ReformPoliceNG
