Police Commissioner Rusiate Tudravu has commended officers in the Northern Division for their dedication and teamwork in enhancing service delivery during policing operations. His recent operational visit involved discussions with Senior Superintendent of Police Kemueli Baledrokadroka and the command group at Namuka House, where they strategized on improving responses to challenges faced, particularly in remote areas.
Commissioner Tudravu expressed his appreciation for the officers’ hard work, acknowledging the demanding nature of their roles and the necessity of mutual support among team members. He emphasized the leadership responsibility to inspire and motivate officers to fulfill community expectations, reassuring them that the Headquarters division would provide essential support to address difficulties encountered while serving in remote settings.
During the review of operations in the first two months of the year, there was a noted increase in drug-related reports, attributed to heightened policing activities. This aligns with ongoing initiatives in the Northern Division aimed at combating illegal drug possession, highlighting a strong partnership between the community and law enforcement.
Tudravu’s emphasis on morale-boosting during his visits reflects a consistent theme of his leadership approach, focusing on uplifting officers in rural and remote areas. His acknowledgment of officers’ efforts during key occasions, such as Father’s Day and significant religious events, underscores his commitment to community engagement and recognition of the sacrifices made by the police.
These proactive steps signal a positive trajectory toward enhancing police-community relations and bolstering public confidence in law enforcement. By cultivating a culture of support and integrity, Commissioner Tudravu is setting the foundation for a more cohesive and effective police force in Fiji, fostering an environment where officers feel valued and empowered to serve their communities diligently.
