President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, His Excellency Bola Ahmed Tinubu, would on Thursday launch the Nigeria Police Green Initiative at the Nigeria Police Resource Centre, Jabi, Abuja.
According to the Force Police Public Relations Officer, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the Nigeria Police Green Initiative is an initiative of the NPF to promote environmental sustainability within our operations and facilities, as well as reduce the environmental footprint of our activities through the implementation of eco-friendly practices and the adoption of renewable energy sources.
The launch of this initiative will include various activities such as tree planting, the establishment of green zones within police formations, and the promotion of sustainable practices among police personnel.
We believe that through this initiative, the Nigeria Police Force can contribute significantly to the global efforts to combat climate change and protect our environment for future generations.
Meanwhile, President Bola Tinubu joined well-meaning Nigerian and policing stakeholders today 24th July 2024, for the commissioning of two landmark projects of the Nigeria Police Force – the NPF National Cybercrime Centre and the NPF Resource Centre.
