The recent commissioning of graduates from the 6th Regular Course of the Nigerian Police Academy in Kano into the Nigeria Police Force saw a piece of advice given to the Abia State indigenes. The advice emphasized the importance of professionalism and patriotism in their duties. The guidance came from Governor Alex Otti of Abia State and Mohammed Rabi’u Musa Kwankwaso, the founder of the Kwankwasiyya movement.
During a courtesy visit by the graduates to Governor Otti, he commended them as ambassadors of Abia State and congratulated them on their successful completion of the program. Governor Otti stressed the need for the graduates to uphold professionalism and patriotism, urging them to work hard to achieve success and avoid taking shortcuts.
Kwankwaso, in his address to the graduates, highlighted the significance of fearing God and maintaining professionalism in their roles as police officers. He also expressed gratitude for Otti’s leadership and patriotism towards the country. The visit coincided with Kwankwaso’s presence in the state to offer his condolences to Governor Otti on the passing of Dr. Ogbonnaya Onu.
In response, graduate Ejike conveyed their appreciation for the warm reception from Governor Otti, noting the positive changes in Abia State under his leadership. He described Governor Otti as a diligent leader who has enhanced the state’s reputation.
