Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>To tackle the rising cases of insecurity across the state, the Bauchi State Government has commenced a four-day training for security desk officers across its 20 local government areas.<\/p>\n

The training, organized by the Ministry of Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs in collaboration with the Bauchi State Police Command, aims to strengthen grassroots intelligence gathering and community policing.<\/p>\n

Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs, Hon. Isa Babayo Tilde, represented by a director in the ministry, Bala Abdul, said the workshop is designed to equip the officers with the knowledge needed to support security agencies by providing timely and relevant information on criminal activities.<\/p>\n

He explained that the training became necessary due to recent attacks in parts of the state, especially in Alkaleri Local Government Area, where several villagers, including hunters, were killed and livestock stolen during bandit raids.<\/p>\n

During his presentation titled \u201cRoles of Citizens and Youth in Community Policing and Crime Prevention,\u201d the Police Public Relations Officer, CSP Ahmed Wakil, highlighted the lack of trust between the police and the communities.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Nigerian public doesn\u2019t trust the police, and unfortunately, the police often don\u2019t respect the people either. This weak relationship makes effective policing difficult,\u201d Wakil said.<\/p>\n

He reiterated the need for a more proactive approach through community-oriented policing, which involves building partnerships, solving problems, and addressing public concerns that fuel crime and insecurity.<\/p>\n

Another facilitator, CSP Mohammed Barau, stressed the importance of regular risk assessments, security protocol development, and capacity building for public office holders and local security agents.<\/p>\n

Barau added that engaging with the community, earning their trust, and working with traditional institutions are key to creating a safer and more secure environment across the state.<\/p>\n
