He also stressed that commanders would be held accountable for effective supervision and the conduct of personnel under their respective commands.

He spoke when he paid an unscheduled visit to Akim Police Division and five other formations, where he inspected facilities, interacted with officers men, and assessed operational activities and security realities within the respective areas of responsibility.

CP Ordue assured that the impromptu supervisory visits would continue across the Command to strengthen oversight, identify operational challenges firsthand, enhance personnel welfare and improve service delivery.

The Commissioner reiterated his determination to lead from the field and build a professional, responsive and community-oriented Cross River State Police Command.
