Akwa Ibom State Governor, Pastor Umo Eno, has urged newly promoted officers of the Nigeria Police Force to continue in their diligent service to the country.
Speaking during the decoration ceremony of the promoted officers serving in Government House, Uyo, the Governor noted that their elevation is an indication of their commitment and dedication to duty.
