As part of efforts to enhance community policing through inter-agency collaboration, the AIG in charge of Zone XI, Osogbo, Leye Oyebade mni, today paid a courtesy visit to the GOC 2 Division Ibadan, Major-General F.O. Azinta in his office.
The AIG, who was given a warm reception, conveyed the gratitude of the Inspector General of Police (IGP) Mohammed Adamu to the military for its cooperation at all times especially during the just concluded general elections in Ondo, Osun and Oyo states and enjoined it to sustain the tempo.
While assuring that the existing synergy between the police and the military in the Zone would not dwindle during his time, Oyebade reiterated his commitment to providing adequate security for all.
The AIG who was accompanied by the Oyo State commissioner of police (CP), Shina Olukolu psc(+) also emphasized intelligence-led policing, public partnership, training and retraining as tools for effective policing in the Zone.
He added that his vision and mission in the zone stands on a tripod of problem-solving, community partnership and organisational transformation which are essential elements of community policing.
In his reaction, the GOC thanked the AIG for the visit. He lauded the invaluable role of the police in internal security and promised his support always when such support was needed.
Both officers identified the cause of friction between the police and the military as a lack of proper orientation among the rank and file of both security agencies.
To avoid constant conflicts, both officers recommended joint training workshops and seminars, sporting activities and regular interactions.
