FIC Report (Anambra State) – The Anambra State Police Command has reiterated its pledge to strengthen community policing by forming strategic partnerships with creative content producers including skit makers, comedians and other digital media influencers to promote peace, security awareness and responsible citizenship across the State.
Police Public Relations Officer, SP Tochukwu Ikenga said at the Command Headquarters in Awka that the initiative aims to leverage the wide reach and persuasive power of creative content to educate the public on crime prevention and to encourage law‑abiding behaviour.
The programme is also designed to deter cultism, drug abuse, cybercrime, gender‑based violence, misinformation and other social vices, while building mutual trust and cooperation between the Police and the citizenry.
The Command underscored that the collaboration aligns with the Nigeria Police Force’s community policing philosophy and the objectives of the Police Campaign Against Cultism and Other Vices (POCACOV), which focus on preventing crime through advocacy, public enlightenment and youth engagement.
Police Command further assured residents of its continued commitment to adopting innovative and inclusive approaches to crime prevention.
