New Delta State Police Commissioner Muhammed Ali Ari
By ARUGA JOE OMOKARO
The new Commissioner of Police (CP) of Delta State, CP Muhammed Ali Ari, has warned criminals in the state to hibernate from the state or be dealt with according to the law.
He spoke exclusively with DAILY INDEPENDENT in Lagos shortly before leaving for Asaba, the state capital.
The new CP particularly warned kidnappers, armed robbers and oil thieves to turn a new leaf and surrender their illegal arms to the nearest police station.
His words: “I will not condone any form of criminality in the state. I advise the criminals, especially kidnappers, armed robbers and oil thieves who are economic saboteurs to repent and turn a new leaf or hibernate from the state.
“Otherwise, we will apply the full wrath of the law on them.” He also appealed to traditional rulers in the state to cooperate maximally with the police.
