Responding, Sokoto said Nigerians would soon begin to feel the impact of the Fund after the signing of the N74bn 2021 budget currently before the National Assembly.
He said the Fund was ready to assist the Force in achieving its vision, especially in the areas of equipment purchase and welfare and others highlighted by the acting IGP.
