The State Police Commissioner, Naziru Abdulmajid, has disbursed N5,512,280.26 to ten family members of the fallen police officers in the state.
According to the command, the payments are under the Group Life Insurance (GLI) and the Inspector-General of Police Welfare (IGPW) schemes.
The spokesperson of the command, Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP) Nahum Daso, disclosed yesterday in Maiduguri that “the commissioner’s disbursement of N5.51 million to the families of the fallen officers has underscored the Nigeria Police Force’s (NPF) commitment to the welfare of its personnel and the 10 families of the fallen heroes.”
Daso, in his statement, further assured the families that additional welfare support will also be provided to “sustain and enhance” the well-being of the beneficiaries of the NPF schemes.
Speaking on behalf of the 10 next of kin beneficiaries, Solomon Japhet expressed his profound appreciation to the IGP, Olatunji Dissu, and the Borno state command for the welfare support.
He noted that the gesture serves as a source of relief and encouragement to the respective families of the gallant fallen officers in the state.
The Commissioner of Police, Abdulmajid, reaffirmed the command’s dedication to giving priority to the welfare of officers and men while honouring the sacrifices of those who paid the supreme price in serving the country of Nigeria.
