He described the police as a unique arm of security because they are part of the people in the community who are only separated by their uniform in the process of ensuring law and order in the society.
“Despite the fact that there is still a lot of room for improvement, the police force have shown a lot efficiency in the discharge of their duties. The Nigerian police have to a great extent helped to reduce tension to the nearest minimum even in the face of the economic recession hitting the country.” he said.
Governor Aregbesola assured that the present administration in the state will continue to support the police because they are partners in the process of ensuring that Osun remains the safest state in the country.
