ABUJA—President Goodluck Jonathan, yesterday, challenged the Police
Service Commission to instil discipline in the force and ensure that
only those qualified to be promoted to the next position got promoted.
Speaking at inauguration of members of Police Service Commission at the
council chambers of the Presidential Villa in Abuja, President
Jonathan wondered why members of the Nigeria Police Force performed so
well on international assignment and were yet unable to win the
confidence of Nigerians. He said: “One thing and probably I will
mention here today is the issue of Nigerian Police.
You will
agree with me that Nigerians don’t have so much confidence in the
Nigerian police but Nigerian police are good. “The Nigerian Police that
work outside under the United Nations are highly honoured, highly
commended and Okiro will agree with me. But once we come back home that
is not reflected in what we do. ”But I believe there are two things, one
is the issue of discipline and the responsibilities of the Police
Service Commission is to instil discipline. “One of your
responsibilities is to handle promotion. I believe with you only those
who merit or deserve promotion should be promoted. Those who deserve to
be disciplined or even dismissed must be disciplined. “That is one area I
believe you will go into.
People who are promoted to
assistant police commissioner and above must merit the rank. If you
don’t merit the rank you should be retired from the service”.
