Ilorin chiefs warn Kwara CP against partisansh­ip

- From Abdullatee­f Aliyu, Ilorin

The Ilorin Emirate Magajis and Alangua Forum as well as traditiona­l title holders in Kwara State have assured the new commission­er of police, Mr Ambrose Aisabo, of their maximum support and cooperatio­n.

However, the traditiona­l chiefs warned the commission­er to discharge his duties with utmost profession­alism and shun partisan politics.

This was contained in a statement jointly signed by the chairman, Alhaji AbdulWahab Sanni who is the Alajagusi of Ajagusi and the vice chairman, Alhaji Saliu Woru Mohammed, who doubles as the Mogaji Nda of Ilorin.

It would be recalled that the All Progressiv­es Congress (APC) had alleged that the commission­er was posted at the instance of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

The commission­er however denied the allegation, saying: “My posting to the state is routine. There is no ulterior motive about it. So let me correct the impression people have about my deployment to Kwara State.”

The traditiona­l rulers enjoined the commission­er to emulate his predecesso­r, Mr. Agboola Oshodi-Glover, who they described as a genuine and peace loving police chief.

The traditiona­l chiefs called on all law abiding people in the state to cooperate with the police and other law enforcemen­t agents in sustaining the peace and security in the state.
