The Gombe State Command of the Nigerian Police Force has reaffirmed its commitment to collaborating with the Youth O’clock Advancement Movement Association Nigeria to enhance security across the state.
This was disclosed by the newly posted Commissioner of Police, CP Bello Yahya, during an advocacy visit by the association to the state command headquarters.
According to CP Bello Yahya, security is a collective responsibility, and it is crucial for stakeholders and citizens to actively support security agencies, particularly by providing timely intelligence on suspicious activities to facilitate swift action.
Commending the Youth O’clock Nigeria for its vision of empowering young people and combating social vices, CP Bello Yahya emphasized that such initiatives are instrumental in shaping responsible citizens who contribute meaningfully to national development.
Expressing concern over the rising involvement of minors in criminal activities, which he linked to drug abuse, CP Yahya assured that the Gombe State Police Command would work closely with Youth O’clock Nigeria to develop initiatives that will help protect lives and property across the state.

Comrade Labaran appreciated the Commissioner of Police for the warm reception and assured him that Youth O’clock Nigeria remains committed to supporting the police in their mission to safeguard lives and property, in alignment with the Nigerian Constitution.
In a related development, the Youth O’clock delegation also visited the Chief Executive Officer of Green White Green Sport Center, Alhaji Ahmed Shuaibu Gara-Gombe, where he offered valuable advice to support the association’s growth and pledged his unwavering support for any initiative aimed at fostering sustainable development in Gombe State.
