If the threat by the Inspector- General of Police (IGP), Mr. Solomon Arase, is anything to go by, all rotten eggs in the rank and file of the Nigeria Police will soon be shown the way out. That was as he said the stewardship of committed and hardworking officers will be appropriately rewarded.
The IGP, who read the riot act, while addressing officers and men of the Jigawa State Police Command at the Command ground in Dutse during his familiarisation tour, insisted that the move was part of measures put in place to cleanse the force of any form of corrupt practices and indiscipline among its officers.
“We are determined to put our house in order by way of fishing out bad eggs within our fold in the bid to instill discipline and professionalism; hence our resolve to emphasise on good moral conduct of our personnel,” Arase said. According to the IGP, measures had been put in place to ensure the actualisation of these concepts, which included but not limited to monitoring and evaluation of the security personnel for good moral behaviour and waging war against corruption, among other social vices detrimental to the laws of the land.
Others are training and re-training for professionalism, instilling discipline among the rank and file of the force, improvement of welfare scheme to members of the force, adoption of modern security measures and application of effective service delivery.
