Adamu noted that the promotion of the officers was part of the ongoing efforts by the police to ensure that deserving personnel were promoted accordingly, to encourage hard work, and further entrench the culture of merit, excellence, and dedication to duties.

He commended the officers for their resilience and invaluable commitment to traffic control duties as greatly recognised by the members of the public.
