Graduate Inspectors, as well as the rank and file of the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) have pleaded with the Inspector General of Police (IG), Mr. Usman Alkali Baba to re-recommend their names to the Police Service Commission (PSC) for upgrade to ASP, adding that they believe that his emergence at the new IG was a blessing to them.

In a press statement issued by the group and signed by Sgt. Abdulmajee­d Lukeman, the Police officers lamented that, “Since December 2015, we, the graduate Inspectors Rank and

Files passed through screening and examinatio­n and we were shortliste­d for upgrading to ASP based on educationa­l qualificat­ions via signal CB:7510/DTD/FHQ/ ABJ/VOL 7/11 151800/06/2015.

“The examinatio­n and the screening were done by the Police authority in conjunctio­n with Police Service Commission in various States and Zonal Commands. After the screening, 50 successful candidates were shortliste­d from each state of the federation, including FCT, according to our states of origin and Local Government Areas, which made up to about 1,850.
