Kebbi state Commissioner of Police, CP Bello M. Sani, has on Monday strengthened security measures at the National Youth Service Corps orientation camp in Basaura, Jega Local Government Area.
According to Sani during his visit to the camp with his management team, the move is part of what he described as a “proactive approach to protecting corps members.”
“You must remain vigilant at all times. Do not cluster in one place—move around, observe your surroundings, and work as a team,” he told the personnel during the operational briefing.
The CP stressed that seamless collaboration among all units is paramount, noting that inter-agency synergy is critical to ensuring a peaceful and hitch-free orientation exercise.
“Show commitment, support one another, and strengthen your cooperation with other security agencies and camp officials. This is how we guarantee a safe environment for our corps members,” Sani said.
The commissioner also held a closed-door meeting to review the camp’s existing security architecture.
The session was attended by top stakeholders, including the Kebbi State Commissioner for Internal Security, Alhaji Haliru Wasagu; the Security Adviser to the Governor, Col. Hassan Ribah (retd.); the State NYSC Coordinator, Alhaji Bala Kagarko; Commanding Officer of 36 PMF Birnin Kebbi, ACP Aliyu Jega; and the Assistant Commissioner of Police, Operations, ACP Auwal Yakubu.
According to the Police Public Relations Officer, CSP Nafi’u Abubakar Kotarkoshi, critical issues around safety, early warning systems, and rapid response were discussed to further strengthen the camp’s resilience.
