The Nigeria Police Trust Fund (NPTF) has trained 100 police officers on public order policing, crowd and force management protection in Adamawa.
NPTF’s Executive Secretary, Abdullahi Sokoto said this at the end of a five-day training exercise on Friday in Yola.
He charged the officers to apply the knowledge acquired in practice in the course of discharging their national assignment.
Represented by Ahmed Pindiga, Assistant Director, Monitoring and Evaluation, NPTF, Sokoto said the objective of the exercise was to expose the officers to modern policing.
This, he said, will enable them to double their efforts towards the protection of lives and property of the citizens.
The spokesman of the Adamawa Police Command, SP Suleiman Nguroje, who spoke on behalf of the participants appreciated the organisers and the resource persons for the training.
He said they would transmit the knowledge acquired in the protection of lives and property of the people of the state.
“We will be professional, punctual, loyal in serving the people of the state, never afraid to die in the course of saving lives of the citizens,“ he said.
