Police assure hitch-free Easter celebration, urges Christians to emulate Jesus Christ

 


By Okechukwu Onuegbu

The Anambra State Commissioner of Police, Mr Echeng Echeng, Saturday, assured Christians of hitch-free Easter celebration, noting that the force had been mobilised to secure the citizenry throughout the period of festivities.


Echeng, who disclosed this in a statement issued by the command's PPRO, Tochukwu Ikenga, DSP, further urged Christians nationwide to emulate and adopt the selfless lifestyle of Christ as they join other Christians around the globe to celebrate Easter.


According to him, this was because the remembrance of the victorious death and resurrection of Jesus Christ was a price for the redemption of mankind. 


He therefore, sued for peaceful co-existence among Nigerians irrespective of their religious, political and socio-cultural leaning in consonance with the principles and teachings of Christ. 


"Given the above, the Area Commanders, Heads of Tactical Units, and Divisional Police Officers (DOP’s) have intensified routine patrols and improved operational positioning to protect vulnerable points within their jurisdictions, including major highways, places of worship, residential areas, recreation centres, motor parks, financial institutions, Government/Private Infrastructures and all places of public resort.


" They are also directed to ensure that their officers and men conduct themselves professionally in line with extant laws and standard best practices before, during and after the festival. The Command is also collaborating with other Security Agencies and Stakeholders within the State to provide adequate security and safety in this regard. 


"The CP while wishing Anambrains a happy, fruitful and hitch-free Easter Celebration, enjoins them to be security conscious and continue to provide the Police with useful information that will assist in effectively tracking down criminal elements in our society. They are encouraged to request any security services call the command control room number on 07039194332 or PPRO 08039334002 for a prompt response. The 'npf rescue me app' is also available for free download on both Android and Apple IOS, for Android and iPhone users respectively."
