The Commissioner of Police, Delta State, Hafiz Mohammed Inuwa, has cautioned officers and men of the Delta State Police Command currently deployed for the enforcement of the lockdown and social restriction orders to ensure that the rights of the people are not abused under any guise.
CP Inuma, in a statement issued by the image maker of the Command, DSP Onome Onovwakpoyeya, said persons on essential duties duly exempted from the restriction orders, should be accorded due courtesies and unfettered access to and from their places of work.
He charged Area Commanders, DPOs and Tactical Commanders across the state to ensure adequate supervision of personnel under their watch, as well as due compliance with the standard operation guiding the special tasks.
Area Commanders are also to ensure round the clock anti – crime patrols and surveillance around vulnerable targets such as medical facilities, shops and markets, residential areas, financial institutions and Automated Teller Machines (ATM) points amongst others, to ensure that criminals did not take undue advantage of the current lockdown to perpetrate crimes.
Hafiz Inuma expressed gratitude to Deltans for their resilience and voluntary compliance with the social restriction order and cooperation with the Police at all times and urged them to observe all precautionary measures recommended by relevant health authorizes so that Delta would remain COVID – 19 free.
