Olaniyi made the call on Friday, during his visit to the Force Headquarters Mosque to distribute relief materials to the Muslim faithful, ahead of the Ramadan and Easter celebrations.
The PCRC is a community policing-based organisation established by the leadership of the Nigeria Police Force in 1984, to foster a partnership between the police and respective communities in the country, to enhance the efficient and effective policing of communities in Nigeria.
The PCRC chair urged Nigerians to assist operatives of the Force by providing relevant information that would lead to curb crime and criminality in the country.
“Let us support efforts of the police to make our society crime-free,” he said.
He added that the committee’s visit to the IGP to share the Easter and Ramadan relief materials was to ensure proper welfare of the officers, adding that the same will be carried in December for the Christian faithful.
“We are going to support the Force Headquarters Church during Christmas because we want them to feel our impact.”
It also paid courtesy visits to IGP, Police Service Commission Leadership, and Police Officers Wives Association, where it donated some relief items.
It described the act as part of its activities in ensuring adequate support for the police in executing its constitutional mandate.
Olaniyi, while speaking, rejoiced with the officers of the Force and applauded them for their role in the nation’s defence.
“We are here to rejoice with you and show you, love,” he added.
The PCRC is marked to be clock 39 years on May 8, 2023, since its existence.
