Kaduna State Government has procured 77 Hilux vehicles to assist the police in maintaining law and order in the state. Governor Nasiru El-Rufa’i, who disclosed this during a working visit to the Police Command Headquarters in Kaduna, also pledged to provide 50 motorcycles to the command.
The governor said the gesture was in appreciation of the tremendous work of the police in securing lives and property in the state.
“The police are the first line of defence and I thought it wise to come here first and thank you and to also encourage you. Also to know the challenges you are facing so that within the resources of the state government we can do our best to provide you with the tools and equipment necessary for your job. The vehicles are already being procured as we speak and the motorcycles will follow by God’s grace,” he said.
