Police Beef Up Security In Banks, ATM Points

Rita Enemuru, Reporting

THE Bayelsa State Police Command has beefed up security in banks and ATM points in the state due to the scarcity of the new Naira notes and the attendant angst.

In a statement warning miscreants to desist from using violence due to CBN policies, the Commissioner of Police in the State, CP Ben Nebolisa Okolo, charged police officers to closely monitor banks and ATM points to prevent any act of violence.

The statement reads: “The Command understands the plight of the masses and we are hopeful that the new measures introduced by the CBN will improve the circulation of the currency in the coming days.

“Miscreants, under any guise, are hereby warned to desist from carrying out any unlawful assembly to unleash violence in the State, as the Command will not allow any person(s) or group of persons to truncate the relative peace being enjoyed in the State.

“The Command is appealing to Members of the public to remain calm and go about their lawful and legitimate businesses as the command is poised to guarantee public safety and security.
