From Ibrahim Sidi Muh’d, Gusau

The assurance was made by the Commissioner of Police Zamfara State Command, CP Mohammed Shehu Dalijan today Tueday in his office as he received members of the ZSSTT that paid him an advocacy visit.
CP Dalijan, said his command has since introduced formidable strategies that led to the reduction of incessant attacks by bandits on schools especially tertiary institutions across the state.
He noted that, part of the efforts was a frequent but prompt receipt of reports from certain quarters which subsequently responded promptly by the gallant men of the Command, the development which believed has reduced the incident to the barest minimum.
“Before my coming as Commissioner of Police, there were reports pertaining bandits attacks on schools almost on daily basis, but now it has reduced drastically.
“The Command is at this point, welcome the ZSSTT for delving into a business which will compliment and serve as a spur to what we have been doing as our constitutional duty.
“Our doors are widely opened 24 hours and our men always remain on their toes waiting for distress calls 7 days of the week, we would not relent to fiercely respond to any bandits-related activities in the state.
“I therefore welcome your partnership and outrightly assured you that you will be contacted anytime the need arise”, CP Dalijan has stressed.
