The Jigawa State Police Command has urged residents to play a more active role in keeping their communities safe by reporting suspicious activities and sharing useful information with security agencies.
The Commissioner of Police, Haruna Alaba Yahaya, made the appeal on Tuesday during a stakeholders’ meeting held at the Command Headquarters in Dutse.
He assured the public that information provided to the police would be handled confidentially.
He said the fight against crime cannot be left to security agencies alone, noting that community members often see and know things that can help prevent attacks, theft, and other criminal acts before they occur.
According to him, the Command is focusing on proactive policing, intelligence gathering, and respect for human rights as part of efforts to improve safety across the state.
Stakeholders, however, pledged their support for closer cooperation with the police.
The Police Command said it would continue to engage residents and key groups across Jigawa as part of efforts to build trust and strengthen security statewide.
