Hundreds of Police commissioners, deputy
commissioners and assistant Police commissioners have stormed the Force
Headquarters to lobby the newly appointed Inspector-General of Police,
Mohammed Adamu, The PUNCH has learnt.
Our correspondent learnt
that with most of the deputy inspectors-general leaving the service,
vacancies will be created in the system, with some CPs and AIGs getting
accelerated promotions.
Some departments regarded as ‘juicy’ include the administration and finance, housing, as well as procurement.
Some
of the most sought-after postings among Police commissioners and senior
officers include: Lagos, Rivers, Bayelsa, Akwa Ibom, FCT, Police Mobile
Force, oil protection units and foreign missions attaché.
There is also expected to be some reshuffling soon ahead of next month’s elections.
Some states are also considered to be ‘juicy’ during election seasons.
A
CP who spoke to our correspondent on the condition of anonymity,
however, said they were only coming to pay homage to the new IG and not
necessarily to lobby for juicy positions.
He said, “I am here to pay homage to my new boss and pledge my loyalty. I am not here to lobby anybody.”
