The new Commissioner of Police in Kaduna State, Austin Iwar, on Thursday vowed to dislodge kidnappers and other criminals terrorizing the state.

Mr. Iwar, who made the pledge at his maiden media briefing in Kaduna, pledged to introduce proactive measures involving communities to ensure peace and security in the state.

“Measures will be taken to frustrate and reduce the disturbing activities of kidnappers and like criminals,” he assured.

“We will deploy proactive strategies that will enlighten the public on how to prevent themselves from being kidnapped as well as removing opportunities for kidnap.

“As part of improving the security situation in the state and providing services to our people according to best practice, we plan to involve our communities more in determining policing priorities to serve them better.”

He said the approach would be mainly driven by propagation of community partnership approach to policing.

“Therefore there will be massive community engagement, because we realised that while the police cannot be everywhere, our communities abound everywhere.

“This strategy will focus on but not restricted to crime prevention and community safety.’’

Mr. Iwar listed some of the strategies for crime prevention in the state to include vigorous, focused and targeted motorised and foot patrol round the clock and public sensitization and awareness.
