Mr Yaro stated that as his mission and vision to the State is to among other things, ensure that the State became a crime free one and retain its position of being most peaceful one in the Federation, the need for support and cooperation from particularly members of the public is paramount.
According to him, it is a known fact that protecting the lives and property of the citizens is solely the responsibility of the police, and that no pressure from any angle will make them to relent in the direction.

Getting rid of the criminals and all their activities, continued the commissioner, is simple as long as there is support and determination from the public, and that the doors of the office of the command are opened for anyone with good information that will lead to the arrest of such bad eggs in the society.
He called on all other sister security agencies to continue to cooperate with the command so that together they will succeed in moving the State forward.
