Anambra Police Command praises citizens for choosing dialogue over unrest

Anambra State Police Command has conducted a security situational assessment following credible intelligence reports about a planned protest in some parts of the State.

According to the Police Public Relations Officer, Anambra State Police Command, SP Tochukwu Ikenga, the assessment revealed that residents, particularly Ndi Anambra, have embraced dialogue and peaceful engagement as a means of addressing concerns, rather than indulging in unpatriotic actions such as protests, illegal sit-at-home orders, or any form of civil disturbance that disrupts public peace and socio-economic activities.

The Command commended the good people of Anambra State for their growing commitment to peace, unity, and progress.

It further assures that adequate security arrangements have been emplaced to sustain the existing peace and to ensure that law-abiding citizens continue their legitimate activities without fear.

Commissioner of Police, CP Ikioye Orutugu, reiterated that the Command under his watch will continue to adopt proactive measures, strengthen community policing strategies, and collaborate with critical stakeholders to maintain security, law, and order across the State.
