The Enugu State Police Command, has begun a statewide sensitisation on its ‘Bail is Free Campaign’ to residents of Enugu.

The command’s Public Rela­tions Officer, SP Ebere Amaraizu, while speaking at the town hall meeting of Enugu West senato­rial zone in Awgu, near Enugu on Thursday, said that collecting money for bail was unprofession­al.

Amaraizu, who spoke on the topic; “Know Your Right; Bail is Free’’, explained that the meet­ing was to inform and educate the public (stakeholders) on the professional standards expected of any police personnel.

“It is meant to let everybody know the professional conduct expected of any police personnel, as well as the expectations of policemen and officers from the public. What the public need to do and how they are to partici­pate in community policing as well as relate well with their police,’’ he said.

According to him, the series of town hall meetings and other engagements are meant to carry the people along as the command implements full community po­licing strategies in the state.

Amaraizu said that similar town hall meetings had already been organised for people of Enu­gu East senatorial zone as well as Enugu North senatorial zone earlier this week. Stakehold­ers at the meeting were given relevant contact phone numbers of the police accountability units (PAU)so as to report any unpro­fessional conduct of any police personnel within the zone to the appropriate authorities.

The meeting was organised by the command in partnership with the Nigeria Policing Pro­gramme(NPP).
