The Commissioner of Police in Kano State, Ibrahim Adamu Bakori, has commended workers across the state for their contributions to development, saying their sacrifices remain vital to the progress of Kano and Nigeria.
In a goodwill message marking the 2026 Workers’ Day on Friday, the police commissioner congratulated workers on behalf of officers and men of the Kano State Police Command.
“On behalf of the officers and men of the Kano State Police Command, I extend warm felicitations to all workers in Kano State as we join the rest of the world to commemorate Workers’ Day 2026,” he said.
He praised workers in both public and private sectors, describing them as the backbone of development.
“Today, we celebrate the resilience, dedication, and invaluable contributions of Nigerian workers to the socio-economic growth, peace, and development of our dear state and nation,” he stated.
Bakori also saluted security personnel, teachers, health workers, civil servants, journalists, traders, farmers, artisans, and transport workers.
He noted that their efforts under difficult conditions continue to keep the state stable.
“Your sacrifices, often under challenging conditions, have kept Kano moving forward,” he said.
He assured residents that the police would continue to prioritise safety and security in line with the directives of the Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, through intelligence-led policing and community partnership.
Bakori also urged workers and residents to remain peaceful and law-abiding, warning against violence and criminal activities.
“As we mark this day, I appeal to all workers and residents to remain law-abiding, peaceful, and vigilant. Shun violence, thuggery, and all forms of criminality. The Command will not relent in its fight against crime, and we count on your continued support through timely and credible information. Let us use this Workers’ Day to renew our commitment to hard work, unity, and patriotism for a safer, more prosperous Kano State,” he added.
