Police distribute N37m to families of deceased personnel in Kaduna

The Police Command in Kaduna State on Wednesday doled out N37.28 million to 23 families of deceased personnel who died in active service in the state.

The Commissioner of Police, Mudassiru Abdullahi, presented the cheques on behalf of the Inspector General (IGP) of Police, to families of the deceased at the Command Headquarters.

Abdullahi said that the N37,280,667 was for the Group Life Assurance and Group Personal Accident Insurance Scheme.

The CP charged the beneficiaries and other officers to see the gesture as a call to rededicate themselves to the service of the nation.

He said that the IGP had assured them of proper welfare packages at all-time both within and out of service which is one of his administrative cardinal principles.

The beneficiaries expressed pleasure in the appreciation of the gesture and prayed that God will continue to guide the Nigerian Police in discharging their duties.
