The transformation agenda by the Inspector General of Police (IGP) can only be realized if the attitude of the officers are change towards the people they serve, DCOP Timothy stated. Citizens he added can only volunteer information of criminals if they have full trust of the officers.
He reminded officers that without information from the public, the work of the police will be very difficult and combating crime cannot succeed.
He told officers in the northern region that they are servants in uniform and therefore must be polite in talking to the public.
