CP Nnanna emphasized the importance of timely and credible information sharing, community support and mutual trust in preventing and tackling crime. He encouraged the Arewa leaders to remain committed partners in the Command’s security initiatives and to continue sensitizing their members on the importance of supporting lawful security operations and promptly providing useful information to the Police.


The Commissioner also stressed the need for communities to maintain peaceful relations with one another and to work closely with the Police in addressing emerging security concerns before they escalate.


In his response, the Chairman of Arewa Community in Anambra State and National Deputy Director-General of the Miyetti Allah Cattle Breeders Association of Nigeria (MACBAN), Gidado Siddiki Sarki, appreciated the Commissioner of Police and the leadership of the Command for their accessibility, openness and commitment to community policing.


He pledged the continued support and cooperation of the Arewa Community with the Police and other security agencies towards maintaining peace, protecting lives and property, and promoting harmonious coexistence across the State.


The Commissioner assured the delegation that the Command remains committed to maintaining an open-door policy and strengthening partnerships with all communities, irrespective of ethnic, religious or social backgrounds.


CP Nnanna noted that inclusive engagement, mutual trust, timely intelligence and collective responsibility remain key components of his policing strategy. He reaffirmed the Command’s commitment to working with all law-abiding residents and stakeholders towards building a safer, more peaceful and secure Anambra State.
