Kaduna State Commissioner of Police, Yekini Ayoku, has embarked on an official confidence-building and assessment tour of the Kaduna-Abuja highway.

Command’s spokesperson, Mohammed Jalige, in a statement on Monday, said Mr Ayoku assured all road users that the highway was safe for travelling.

Mr Jalige said the police commissioner was accompanied on the tour by top police officers from the command.

He said that during the visit, the police boss interacted with security personnel at various points on the ever-busy highway.

Mr Jalige quoted the police commissioner as commending the operatives for their service to the country, assuring them that the command and the Nigerian Police Force would always look into their welfare.

Mr Ayoku, however, advised the general public and commuters on the highway to always be prompt in reporting unusual incidents or suspected persons for immediate action.
