Alkali, who was represented at the passing out parade of the new constables, by the Assistant Inspector General of Police in charge of Police Intelligence Bureau AIG.  Habu Ahmadu, urged them to toe the line of honour and shun acts capable of tarnishing the image of the police.

 “There is no place for corrupt, indolent and disgruntled officers in the force” the IG said.

The Commandant of the Training School, ACP. Amodu Aloko, in an address appreciated the police high command for carrying out the renovation of hostels, drilling of borehole for use by the recruits and construction of more toilets and provision of sports facilities.
