NANS JCC ENUGU CELEBRATES CP GIWA’S BIRTHDAY, REAFFIRMS STUDENTS–POLICE PARTNERSHIP FOR PEACE AND SECURITY

The leadership of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) Joint Campus Council (JCC), Enugu State Chapter, has celebrated the Commissioner of Police, Enugu State Command, CP Giwa, on the occasion of his birthday, describing the celebration as an opportunity to appreciate his service to the state and further strengthen the relationship between the police and the students’ community.

The NANS JCC leadership paid a strategic visit to the Commissioner following his birthday celebration on Monday, September 28, 2026, where they presented him with a birthday gift as a gesture of goodwill and appreciation for his commitment to maintaining peace and security across Enugu State.

The visit was more than a routine birthday courtesy call. It represented a deliberate effort by the students’ leadership to reinforce the existing partnership between the students’ community and the Nigeria Police Force in Enugu State.

Over time, the relationship between the Police Command and student leaders has been strengthened through communication, mutual respect and engagement on issues affecting the welfare and security of students.

The visit therefore provided another opportunity to reaffirm the importance of sustained dialogue and collaboration between both institutions, particularly within the framework of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between student leadership and the Police.

For NANS JCC Enugu, the students’ community is not merely a beneficiary of security services but an important stakeholder in the collective responsibility of maintaining peace and order.

Student leaders have a role to play in promoting responsible conduct among students, discouraging social vices, communicating emerging security concerns and supporting initiatives aimed at creating safer learning environments.

The continued partnership between the Police and student leadership is therefore considered important in addressing security challenges within and around campuses while ensuring that students can pursue their academic activities in a peaceful environment.

NANS JCC Commends CP Giwa

The NANS JCC leadership also acknowledged the importance of constructive engagement between security agencies and critical stakeholders in achieving sustainable peace.

According to the student body, maintaining open channels of communication creates room for concerns from the students’ community to be properly communicated while allowing security authorities to better understand the realities confronting students.

The birthday visit was consequently presented as both a celebration of CP Giwa and a reaffirmation of the commitment of NANS JCC Enugu to working with relevant security institutions in promoting peace, security and responsible citizenship among students.

Commitment to a Peaceful Enugu

The NANS JCC Enugu leadership maintained that a secure educational environment requires collective responsibility involving security agencies, school authorities, student leaders and the students themselves.

The body further expressed its readiness to sustain constructive engagement with the Enugu State Police Command and other relevant stakeholders in the interest of students and the wider society.

The celebration ultimately underscored a shared message: peace and security are strengthened when institutions communicate, collaborate and work together in the public interest.
