Expressing deep sorrow over the loss, the command said the heinous act has triggered widespread condemnation and is considered an attack on the security and peace of the state.
“The Kano State Police Command expresses shock and sadness over the brutal killing of the DPO while on active duty. This act is not only a loss to the Police Force but a grave attack on the fabric of our society,” Haruna said.
The Commissioner of Police, CP Ibrahim Adamu Bakori, reassured the public of the command’s unwavering commitment to justice. “The Police will leave no stone unturned in ensuring that all perpetrators are brought to justice. We urge citizens to remain calm and continue to support ongoing investigations,” he said.
The statement also acknowledged the outpouring of public condolences and cooperation, calling for sustained collaboration in the fight against criminality. “We stand united in our resolve to protect and serve our community and ensure that those who undermine our security efforts are held accountable,” Haruna added.
