"We aim to serve as an independent police force for an independent nation," he said.
"Protecting lives, property, and overall law and order is our priority. Your cooperation is crucial to our success. We hope you will continue to support us as wholeheartedly as you have welcomed us back," he added.
The officer also said more police personnel will be joining the station by tomorrow.
The OC also noted that it would take time to fully restore normal police operations as the station had been burned down and police vehicles destroyed during the unrest.
