In a historic move, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has declared April 7 as National Police Day in Nigeria, marking a pivotal moment in the nation’s law enforcement landscape.
With a resolute vision, President Tinubu unveiled plans to revolutionize the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) into a modern, professional, and accountable institution.
Speaking at the prestigious Nigeria Police Awards and Commendations ceremony held at Transcorp Hilton, Abuja, President Tinubu emphasized the urgent need for a complete overhaul of the institutional mentality and memory of police officers.
Since assuming office last year, his administration has embarked on comprehensive reforms aimed at breathing new life into the nation’s police force.
Central to this transformative agenda is the commitment to engage police personnel in rigorous training and capacity-building programs.
These initiatives are designed to equip officers with the cutting-edge expertise necessary to tackle the challenges of modern policing effectively.
President Tinubu’s bold vision underscores a pivotal shift towards a more efficient, transparent, and citizen-centric approach to law enforcement.
As Nigeria commemorates National Police Day, the nation looks forward to a future where the Nigeria Police Force stands as a beacon of professionalism and integrity on the global stage.
