Sule Balarabe, a former Commander of the Nigeria Police contingent in Dafur, Sudan, has assumed duty as Commissioner of Police in Cross River State.
Balarabe, who took over from Aminu Alhassan, was the Commander of Mopol 27, Katsina State before his transfer.
He becomes the 43rd Commissioner of Police in Cross River State.
