The new commissioners of police are: Mohammed Gumel posted to Kano; Haruna Gabriel Garba to the FCT; Tajudeen Abass (Delta); Oladimeji Yomi Olarewaju (Ogun); Taiwo Jesubiyi (Ondo) and Julius Okoro (Benue).
Others are, Romokere Ibiani (Bayelsa); Mohammed Bunu (Yobe); Garba Yusuf (Kaduna); Garba Ahmed (Zamfara); Hayatu Ali (Sokoto) Aliyu Musa (Katsina).
The spokesperson for PSC, Ikechukwu Ani, in a statement released on Tuesday, said the chairman of the commission, Solomon Arase, urged the newly appointed CPs to be more dedicated to their duty.
He said the new posting was a call for greater commitment, innovation, and loyalty to the Nigerian nation, adding that the CPs should brace up and settle down as quickly as possible for duty ahead of the national transition period
