The promotion, which comprised the elevation of 20,572 Sergeants to the next rank of Inspector, 324 Corporals to Sergeants and 143 Constables to the rank of Corporal, is part of the ongoing efforts aimed at improving welfare, conditions of service, boosting the morale of personnel, with a view to repositioning the Force for greater efficiency.

The IGP further said the promotion of the officers is part of the manpower development drive of his administration to ensure that deserving personnel are promoted accordingly, to encourage hard work, and further embed the culture of merit, excellence, and dedication to duties.

According to a statement on Thursday by the Force Public Relations Officer, CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi: “The IGP equally assured senior police officers that the Force high command is liaising with the Police Service Commission on the release of their promotion, which is expected to be approved and released as soon as possible”.
