The Plateau State Police Command has presented cheques amounting to N25,821,550.30 to 22 families of officers who died in active service. Commissioner of Police CP Ayodeji Faniyan, who spoke at the ceremony at the Command Headquarters in Jos, described the disbursement as a renewed commitment to police welfare under Inspector General of Police IGP Tunji Rilwan Disu.

The commissioner later briefed journalists on the Command's operational activities for August 2026, highlighting arrests and recoveries across several local government areas.
