The Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Usman Alkali Baba, has ordered the deployment of four police helicopters on enhanced aerial surveillance.
   
The helicopters are to support police’s operational assets and ensure adequate security across the country.
 
Police spokesperson, Chief Superintendent of Police (CSP), Muyiwa Adejobi, who made the disclosure yesterday, said the directive was in furtherance of the IGP’s commitment to continually provide security.
   
He stressed that the IGP gas released funds and required logistics to facilitate the expensive deployment.
  
“We urge Nigerians to remain calm, go about their lawful businesses and celebrations and render necessary help to our officers and men on duty, while we continue and sustain our patrols. We are available to serve you, even, better at all times,” he said.
