Era of police extortion over under my watch – AIG Yaro

…warns officers within the zone to desist from extorting members of the public

The Assistant Inspector General of Police (AIG) in charge of Zone13, Ukpo, Mr. Abutu Yaro has warned all officers within the zone to desist from extorting members of the public who run to them for assistance.

Yaro who is feared for his exploits against crime and criminality, also warned criminals to disappear from the zone immediately.

The AIG stated this when the Commissioners of Police of the two commands and Commanders of tactical teams in the zone paid him a courtesy visit at the zonal headquarters, Ukpo to familiarise with him after he assumed duty a few days ago.

He charged the Commissioners of Police in Anambra and Enugu States to always exhibit professionalism and supervise the activities of their subordinates.

He charged officers and of the zone to work with integrity, avoid abuse of power and create enabling environment for members of the public to see the police as their friend.

“You must also ensure proper supervision of officers and men, especially during the yuletide and electioneering periods.

“May I also warn all criminal elements terrorising the zone to leave the states (Anambra and Enugu) as I will leave no stone unturned to fish them out,” he said.
