Governor of Akwa-Ibom state, H. E. Udom Emmanuel has commisserated with the Nigerian police over the loss of their personnels in different parts of the country, most especially the death of the officers who lost their lives during the security breach in Essien Udim. He said, “The gallantry and patriotism of those men who died in combat, are deeply appreciated by the Government and good people of Akwa Ibom State. Accepting to pay the supreme sacrifice to restore law and order, is the greatest act of loyalty to the country and the Force. "To the glory of God, the criminal elements have been neutralised, their unwholesome activities thwarted and absolute tranquility has returned to the troubled area. The conquest of evil and return of normalcy, to my mind, is the most befitting condolence message to the Force and families of the fallen officers, because it adds a note of positivity to their already very painful death.” While assuring that it would take steps to cushion the effect of the demise of the officers on their families, Governor Udom commended the efforts of the state's security and intelligence community on eradication of criminals and restoring the peace in Essien Udim. He promised continues support to the police and other security agencies in the discharge of their duties.
