The newly promoted Assistant Commissioner of Police Daniel
Amah on Monday was again dignified with another honour from Governor Abdullahi
Umar Ganduje who applauded his display of uprightness and display of
professionalism.
Amah, a former divisional police officer (DPO) of Nassarawa
station, Bompai Division in Kano, was recently promoted from Chief
Superintendent of Police (CSP) to Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) after
his celebrated criminal case.
The young police officer in April 2022, reportedly rejected
an offer of $200,000 to suppress a criminal investigation involving one Ali
Zaki who allegedly arranged armed robbers to trail and rob a Bureau D’ Change
operator of $750. Amah was honoured with a national award for his exemplary
act.
In a letter of commendation to Amah, Ganduje said his
exemplary act of incorruptibility is a testimony that people of integrity are
still in the force.
The letter signed by the governor and presented to Amah by
Kano State Commissioner of Police, CP Mohammad Dauda, said Amah’s action led to
the eventual apprehension and prosecution of Ali Zaki and other criminal gangs.
” You are indeed an absolute gem for accomplishing this
outstanding dedication and exhibition of sound professionalism. I join people
of goodwill to commend and urge you to uphold this priceless character in your
career,” Ganduje said.
CP Dauda who was deployed newly to Kano used the opportunity
to caution political actors and implore them to play by the rules as enshrined
in the Electoral Act and the Constitution. He insisted no stone would be left
unturned to clamp down on any individual or group that attempt to breach public
peace before and during the election.
He further reminded that police would remain neutral in the
political landscape and assured a level playing ground for all parties, hinting
that police would hold a parley with stakeholders on how to mitigate violence
during the 2023 poll.
” Our strategy will be citizen-led policing, community
policing, trust and partnership between police and public to achieve peace and
order. We would deepen our anti-crime fight via visibility policing and working
closely with sister security agencies,” CP Dauda asserted.
