The new police commissioner in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), CP Ahmed Mohammed Sanusi, has said many of those who are familiar with his professional approach will attest that crime does not thrive wherever he serves.
CP Sanusi, while speaking during a press briefing at the command in Abuja, on Wednesday, said crime will not have no place across the FCT during his tenure
He said the FCT police command under his leadership would be proactive, intelligence driven, professional and relentless in its operations.
“And we shall leave no stone unturned in ensuring that criminal elements are identified, pursued, and flushed out of the FCT. As my objective is not only to respond to crime but to deter and prevent it before it occurs,” he said.
He, however, warned those who have chosen the path of criminality to bear in their minds that the territory will no longer a safe haven for them, saying the command will not relent until every criminal element is brought to justice.
“Hence, you are strongly warned to desist from all forms of unlawful activities, pack up, and exit the FCT, or be prepared to face the full weight and relentless arm of the law.”the CP warned.
CP Sanusi, also, warned officers and men of the command that no form of indiscipline or unprofessional conduct will be tolerated under his leadership.
He said all personnel must remain civil in their interactions with members of the public and uphold the highest standards of professionalism in the discharge of their duties.
The police commissioner, therefore, solicited for the support and collaboration of FCT residents with the police, saying security is a collective responsibility as the command cannot do it alone.
He pledged that the command under his leadership will operate an open door policy and encourage members of the public to engage with the security, through sharing of useful information.
