The Katsina State Command of the Nigeria Police Force said it has, in collaboration with other security agencies, led by the AIG Zone 14 Katsina, deployed adequate security measures in Daura town and across the command for the burial of late former president Muhammadu Buhari to ensure a hitch-free burial.
The command, headed by CP Bello Shehu, extended its deepest condolences to the government and people of Katsina State, the family, friends, and the entire nation on the passing of the former president.
The Command, in a statement by its Spokesman, DSP Abubakar Sadiq, acknowledged Buhari’s contributions to the nation’s development and growth.
In a related development, the State Commandant of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Aminu Datti, announced the deployment of 2,807 operatives ahead of the burial of the former president.
Commandant Datti disclosed this during a brief meeting with senior management staff of the command earlier on Monday at the State Command Headquarters, Katsina.
