Spokesman of the Commission, Ikechukwu Ani said, “These were high points of the 20th Plenary Meeting of the Commission held at the Corporate Headquarters of the Commission in Jabi, Abuja and presided over by the Commission’s Chairman and former Inspector General of Police, Dr. Solomon Arase.

The Commission also approved the punishment of reprimand to six Officers, one Superintendent and five Assistant Superintendents.

The Plenary also approved the promotion of 109 senior staff of the Commission.
The Chairman of the Commission who presided over the Meeting for the first time congratulated the newly promoted staff for their success in the promotion examination but reminded them that their new status was a call to more sacrifice in their conduct of government business.

Dr Arase said they must reciprocate this gesture by putting in more effort in the service of the Commission.

He assured that the promotion of staff will be a priority during his tenure of Office but noted that the Staff must be ready to improve themselves and be prepared for the challenges ahead.

The Chairman also called on the Police to ensure that they work within the established laws guiding their operations.

Arase assured them that henceforth disciplinary matters will be handled with dispatch so that Officers who are found wanting will serve their punishments while those who are exonerated are cleared to continue with their career progression without hindrance.
