In a press statement issued on May 1, Egbetokun appreciated not just the courage of officers in the line of duty but also their daily contribution to national development. “Their resolve and dedication to duty are the bedrock of our nation’s stability,” he said.
Beyond praise, the IGP assured that the Force is taking steps to improve officers’ welfare. He mentioned plans to enhance their living conditions, work environment, and opportunities for career advancement.
He also emphasized that the Nigeria Police Force is working towards a more supportive and inclusive workplace, where officers feel respected and empowered.
