The Commissioner of Police in Anambra State, Mr. Echeng Echeng, has assured residents of the state that the command is firm and ready to enhance public safety and peace in the area.

He made the promise in a statement signed by the Command’s Public Relations Officer, Mr. Tochukwu Ikenga.

The promise followed the gallantry performance of the Command’s operatives, who successfully repelled an attack at Uli Police Divisional Headquarters in Ihiala Local Governmet Area on Friday.

The statement noted that the attackers abandoned one of their operational vehicles, black colour Lexus 330 and fled the scene due to the superior fire of the police operatives.

The statement also indicated that the Police Station was in good condition and no personnel or arm was lost.

Meanwhile, the area has since been reinforced by the operatives of the command and operations ongoing.

The statement added that details of the attack would be communicated later.
