BORDER CLOSURE ENFORCEMENT: CP VISITS ENUGU/EBONYI BORDER POST, WARNS OPERATIVES TO STRICTLY ENFORCE THE ORDERS, AS COMPLICITY WON’T BE TOLERATED*





As the prevalence of Covid 19 pandemic continues to increase in the South East, the Commissioner of Police, CP Ahmad AbdurRahman on Tuesday visited Enugu/Ebonyi States border security post to inspect and ascertain the level of compliance and enforcement of the COVID-19 pandemic border closure and inter-states transportation and travel restriction orders by security operatives.

Following his observation that a good number of vehicles and persons were queued up and desiring to cross the border, the Commissioner took time to assess and grant access to exempted vehicles conveying essential goods and service providers, while turning back those not exempted. 

He charged Operatives posted at the border to stick with the rules of engagement and resist intolerable acts of complicity and complacency capable of jeopardizing the enforcement duty, warning that anyone found wanting will be appropriately sanctioned.

The CP, while also warning that anyone found violating the orders will be brought to book, irrespective of his/her class or status, wondered why some citizens seem not to have come to terms with the fact that Corona Virus pandemic not only exists, but that it has had fatal and devastating socio-economic impact in countries of the world, including Nigeria. 

He enjoined all and sundry to be law-abiding and compliant with the restriction orders as well as observe all the NCDC preventive measures. 






The Commissioner was accompanied by the Air Commore Chidiebere Obiabaka, Commander, 558 Services Base Group of Nigeria Air Force, Enugu and Senior Police Officers in the Command, including ACP Dauda Ayuba, Commander, No. 3 Police Mobile Force, Enugu; SP Abdulkareem Adewale, Commander CTU Base 10, Enugu; and ASP Daniel Ndukwe Ekea, the Command’s Police Public Relations Officer.
