Abdulfatah Ahmed of Kwara has identified community policing as an effective and efficient means of tackling various security challenges in the country.
The governor said this on Sunday while receiving the new Commissioner of Police in the state, CP Lawan Ado at Government House, Ilorin.
According to him, community policing was a feasible option in the existing battle against insurgence, kidnaping and other forms of security threats to the country’s corporate existence.
