It said it is committed to implementing the ongoing comprehensive police reform to revolutionise the policing landscape by fostering inclusivity, community engagement, intelligence-driven operations and technological integration.

Represented by the Commissioner of Police, FCT Command, Olatunji Disu, the IG said the force eagerly anticipates the completion of the project and commencement of police activities to foster a safer environment for all citizens. In his remarks, the Executive Secretary, NPTF, Mohammed Sheidu, said the modern and smart divisional police headquarters when completed will be more than just bricks and mortar. He noted that it will represent their collective resolve to provide a police force and officers with modern infrastructure that enhances their operational capacity and improved welfare. “This headquarters will feature state-of-the-art facilities, while the quarters will provide decent and comfortable housing for the personnel, fostering an environment where they can thrive both personally and professionally,” he stated. To the contractor, he said: “We are entrusting you with the responsibility to deliver a world class facility that meets the highest standard of quality and excellence. At the same time, we urge you to work diligently and efficiently to ensure the timely completion of this project. “The safety and well being of the officers and community that they serve depends on the realization of this project.” Sheidu said that the NPTF will monitor the project closely and provide all necessary support to ensure the success of the project, adding that: “This project is a symbol of progress, collaboration and hope. It is a testament to what can be achieved when we work together for the greater good.” The District Head of Mpape, Adamu Diga, expressed appreciation to the ministry, NPTF and the NPF for accepting their request to upgrade the existing Mpape Police Post to the divisional headquarters to enhance the efficiency and service delivery to the people of the district.
