The Inspector-General of Police IGP Mr. Mohammed Idris on Friday decorated nine senior police officers promoted to their next ranks
Among them is the Force Public Relations Officer, who was promoted from the rank of Deputy Commissioner of Police to a Commissioner of Police.
During the decoration ceremony, the IGP noted that the promotion to the next rank was one of the motivational incentives to honour officers who have distinguished themselves in their various capacities and exhibited spectacular performance in discharge of their duties.
He said, his management team has recognized some officers who have ennobled themselves through dint of hard work, dedication to duty and service to the community. As a deliberate management policy, more of such elevations are in the process for deserving officers.
Since the inception of this current Police administration, remarkable achievements have been recorded in various departments of the Force. These achievements are a result of the collective efforts of these senior officers whose devotion and conduct while performing their duties have been exemplary to say the least.
To this end, worthy of note are huge successes of critical national strategic operations, pragmatic and robust public relations, breakthrough in high profile investigations and landmark accomplishments in curtailing the menace of kidnappings and violent crimes throughout the country.
According to him, tremendous successes were recorded in technical support, as well as fighting corruption and professional misconduct within the Force. In addition, these successes were facilitated courtesy of an effective and seamless administrative structure at the Force Headquarters.
At this juncture, I therefore direct Departmental Heads, Zonal and State Commands, Formations and Units to reactivate the reward system within their powers to adequately reward deserving officers, in accordance with lay down rules and regulations.”
