The Commissioner of Police Anambra State Police Command, CP Nnaghe Obono Itam has praised people of the state for defying the illegal sit-at-home orders by criminal elements and other acts that threaten national unity and public peace in the State.

Itam stated this on Thursday when he led Police security patrol to some identified areas in the State to assess the security deployment and monitor compliance to the Operational order.

He also visited schools where the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE), is ongoing and was pleased with the on-the-spot assessment of the security arrangement.

“I commend the good people of Anambra in their resolve to sustain the message of peace by standing up against illegal sit-at-home orders by criminal elements and any other act that threatens our national unity and public peace in the State.

“Ndi Anambra is blessed with vibrant, energetic, and enterprising people full of potential and this can only be fully realized in a peaceful, secure environment,” he added.

The CP charged the personnel deployed for the assignment to be resolute, firm, and professional in the discharge of their duties.

He also urged residents to remain vigilant and law-abiding as they continue to assist the Police and other security agencies, especially with information as they synergize and collaborate towards combating all forms of criminality as well as maintaining public order and safety in the State.
