The new Commissioner of Police in Adamawa, Dankwambo Morris, on Wednesday promised to give priority to community policing.
Morris, who took over from Afolabi Babatola, said community policing is a modern way of policing in a democratic society which is positive and result oriented, because this system brings or involves the locals in solving or tackling crimes and criminalities.

He urged people in the state to have due respect for law and order and support the police with credible security information that would enable the command to “deal firmly with all acts of criminalities ranging from kidnapping, menace of ‘Shilla’ boys, cattle rustling, armed robbery and other forms of anti-social vices.”
