He emphasised that through concerted action, security agencies can harness their combined resources and knowledge to effectively combat insecurity and guarantee the safety of Nigerians.

He reiterated the command’s commitment to assisting the Nigerian Immigration Service in combating irregular migration and other trans-border crimes within the state.
