The Kaduna state police command has announced “comprehensive security measures” ahead of Eid-el-Fitr celebrations in the state.

Mansir Hassan, the command’s public relations officer, said this in a statement on Tuesday.

“In response to potential security threats during this festive period, the command has devised meticulous operational strategies aimed at curbing the activities of criminal elements,” he said.

Hassan added that conventional and mobile police personnel, including operatives from the Special Intervention Squad (SIS), have been strategically deployed to keep the peace in the state.

He added that undercover operatives have been tasked with monitoring key and vulnerable points.

“The command reassures the public of its readiness to promptly respond to any distress calls and to decisively deal with any individual or group attempting to disrupt the peaceful atmosphere during the festive period,” Hassan added.

“In collaboration with all security agencies in the state, the command seeks to reassure members of the public of their safety.

“Citizens are encouraged to carry out their lawful activities without fear of intimidation or harassment from any quarter.”

He encouraged the public to contact the Kaduna police command through the phone numbers 07039675856 and 0807539110 for further information and assistance.
