Acting Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Hafiz Ringim
Participants at a retreat organised by the Police Service Commission have called on the management of the Nigeria Police Force to put in place a comprehensive strategy to fight corruption within its ranks and in the larger society.
The strategy, the participants added, should be systematic, comprehensive, consistent, and non-partisan and must be supported with adequate remuneration for police officers and provision of adequate logistics for policing work.
A communiqué signed by the PSC Chairman, Mr. Parry Osayande, at the end of the biennial retreat, on Tuesday said there should be an attitudinal change in police administration and law enforcement, especially in relations between the police officers and members of the public. He also called for sincerity in the way police authorities react to allegations of police brutality.
In addition, the statement stressed the need for action against any officer found guilty of acting contrary to force orders and police regulations, noting that the training curriculum should be reviewed to contain the elements that would produce the respectful police of the 21st century.
