We are not relenting on Islamiyya pupils’ rescue – police
By Modupe Shodeinde
Niger State police commissioner, Monday Bala Kurya, has reaffirmed the command’s unrelenting efforts to safely rescue the abducted Salihu Tanko Islamiyya school pupils.
Kurya who received members of the state executive council of Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) in his office in Minna, yesterday, said the first thing that confronted him when he resumed as commissioner of police a few weeks ago was the need to safely rescue the pupils.
He said, “When I resumed duty, the governor, Alhaji Abubakar Sani Bello, specifically made his worries known to me about the abducted pupils and the need to work hard for their rescue.”
Kurya said since then he had taken it seriously, adding that the police were not sleeping on the matter just as the government was not.
According to him, it was based on that he embarked on tour of operational formations around the bandits’ prone areas to understand the security architecture of the state.
