By The Adamawa State Police Command has stepped up efforts to strengthen security across the state, as the Commissioner of Police, CP Dankombo Morris, convened a strategic meeting with senior officers to review and reinforce existing safety measures.
The high-level meeting brought together Divisional Police Officers, Area Commanders, Heads of Departments and Operational Commanders. Discussions centred on improving intelligence gathering, enhancing inter-unit coordination and adopting proactive policing strategies to safeguard lives and property in both urban and rural communities.
