Meanwhile, the State Commissioner of Police has reiterated that the ongoing strengthened policing activities shall be sustained until the area is rid of all acts of crime and criminality.
He, therefore, enjoined the citizens to continue to support the Police as they frontally combat and flush unrepentant criminals and their activities out of Enugu State.
