The Turkish ambassador to Nigeria, Mr Hakan Cakil on December 14, 2015 paid a courtesy visit to the Inspector General of Police, IGP Solomon Arase in his office at the Force Headquarters, Abuja.
The highlight of the visit was the need for an improved relationship between Turkey and the Nigerian government through exchange of counter-terrorism courses for the Nigeria Police Force.
He also said the Turkish government is ready to assist the Nigeria Police Force in investigative tactics and forensic analysis training.
Responding, IGP Arase while appreciating the visit, reminded the Envoy of an existing collaboration between the Nigeria police and Turkey on training at one time of our history, but particularly said, what the Nigeria police need for now is train the trainer program, and specifically requested the presence of Turkish instructors for sustainability.
