As part of ongoing efforts to maintain public safety and peace across the state, the Rivers State Police Command has intensified its security campaigns, directing sharp focus toward stamping out political thuggery, violent crime, and cultism among youths.
A cornerstone of this renewed drive involves the active deployment of the Police Campaign Against Cultism and Other Vices (POCACOV) initiatives. Through school outreaches, community stakeholder meetings, and youth sensitization workshops, the campaign aims to redirect the energy of young people toward productive ventures while raising awareness about the long-term dangers of gang violence and illicit activities.
Fostering Collaborative Community Policing
Security experts and community leaders have continually emphasized that eradicating cultism requires a united front between law enforcement agencies and grassroots communities. By engaging parents, local leaders, and educational institutions, the POCACOV framework seeks to dismantle recruitment networks at the grassroots level.
The Rivers State Police Command has urged residents to cooperate with security operatives by reporting suspicious activities and criminal elements within their neighborhoods, reiterating a zero-tolerance policy toward acts capable of threatening public order and community safety.
