The Nigeria Police Force has commenced a refresher training program in Sokoto State as part of its efforts to improve the professionalism and discipline of its officers.
The training is designed to reorient personnel, especially in handling civil engagements, and to build capacity in intelligence-driven policing.
According to the Commissioner of Police in Sokoto, the program is part of a broader initiative by the Inspector General of Police to standardize operations and curb misconduct within the force.
The refresher course will cover human rights principles, rules of engagement, community policing, and modern investigative techniques.
Officers attending the training are expected to cascade the knowledge to their colleagues across formations. Authorities believe this move will help rebuild public confidence in the police and promote a culture of accountability and service excellence.
