Birnin Kebbi, Kebbi State - Governor Nasir Idris has lauded the outgoing Commissioner of Police, CP Bello Sani, for his tireless efforts in bolstering security in the state. Idris made the commendation at a send-forth ceremony held in Birnin Kebbi on Wednesday, where he described Sani as a "disciplined, professional and committed officer" who served the state with dedication.
"Security was significantly strengthened in the state under Sani's leadership through improved crime prevention, intelligence-led policing and effective collaboration among security agencies," Idris said. He added that the cordial relationship between the state government and security agencies during Sani's tenure had enhanced timely responses to security challenges and ensured sustained peace and stability across the state.
In his farewell remarks, Sani expressed gratitude to God, the Federal Government, and the Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, for the opportunity to serve the nation. He also appreciated the support of the Kebbi Government under Governor Idris, saying the administration's commitment to security reforms and provision of critical infrastructure had enhanced effective policing and community trust in the state.
The retiring commissioner thanked officers and men of the Kebbi Police Command, sister security agencies, and other stakeholders for their cooperation and support. He prayed for God's forgiveness for their shortcomings and recalled colleagues who lost their lives in the line of duty.
