The Police Service Commission has transferred Anambra State Commissioner of Police, Obong Nnache Itam, and appointed Livingstein Ikioye Orutugu, previously of Bayelsa State, as his successor.
The Head of Press and Public Relations, Ikechukwu Ani, stated that the Commission Chairman, DIG Hashimu Argungu, has charged the new CP with the urgent responsibility of establishing law and order without any lapses.
The newly appointed Orutugu is expected to dedicate himself fully to the task of combating criminal elements, including bandits and other deviants, to restore public safety in the state.
The Police Service Commission has conveyed this decision to the Inspector General of Police for prompt implementation.
As Orutugu steps into his new role, residents of Anambra State remain hopeful that this change in command will usher in improved security and a more effective police response to the region’s pressing challenges.
