The Delta State Police Command has engaged members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in a lecture session on cybercrime, law enforcement, citizens’ rights, and responsibilities in line with the directive of the Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, PhD, NPM.
The lecture, held on Wednesday, October 1, 2025, at the NYSC orientation camp in Delta State, was delivered by the Police Public Relations Officer of the Command, SP Edafe Bright, on behalf of the Commissioner of Police, CP Olufemi Abaniwonda.
According to the Command, the initiative is part of efforts to reshape the mindset of corps members for a purposeful life beyond their service year. The session covered key topics including cybercrime awareness, police accountability, community policing, and the rights and responsibilities of citizens.
The corps members were urged to be good ambassadors of the nation, uphold honesty and patriotism, shun violence and crime, and remain committed to nation-building. They were further enlightened on their constitutional responsibilities as contained in Section 24 of the 1999 Constitution, which include respect for the constitution and its institutions, promotion of national interest, and support for law enforcement in maintaining peace and order.
On police accountability, the Command provided corps members with avenues for lodging complaints, including direct phone contacts and other communication channels, assuring them of responsive action in cases of misconduct.
The interactive session also allowed corps members to ask questions and seek clarifications, which were duly addressed to their satisfaction.
