Another insanity just happened! A report reaching us from Raypower 4.00PM FM news made us know that former EFCC boss has been dismissed from the Nigerian police on the recommendation of Police Service commission. This is an height of anarchy in this country. Is it an offence to fight corruption?

The Nigerian Police Service Commission (PSC) has dismissed former Economic and Financial Crimes Commission chairman, Nuhu Ribadu from the Nigerian police force.

The PSC headed by a retired police officer, Parry Osanyande took the decision after a marathon meeting of the commission.



Ribadu Dismissed From Police-PM News, Lagos
By Nnamdi Felix /Minna

Former chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu, has been dismissed from the police force.

A statement signed by police spokesman, Akpoebi Agberebi, confirmed Ribadu’s sack, this afternoon. He was sacked for indiscipline, insurbordination and absence from duty. Ribadu was one of the six police officers nominated and sent on senior executive course at NIPSS, Kuru, Jos.

While on course, he was demoted to the rank of DCP along with 139 officers, who were allegedly wrongfully promoted. According to a statement signed by Akpoebi, the act of misconduct levelled against Ribadu are improper dressing when he appeared before the president on 13 November, with other NIPSS participants, in plain clothes, where others were properly dressed.

He was also accused of instituting legal proceedings against the Inspector-General of Police, AG and the Police Service Commission, at a Federal High Court in Lagos, without proper authority from government.

These conducts, the statement added, are prejudicial to discipline, proper administration of the force and unbecoming of an officer, contrary to sections 352 and 367 of the Police Act and against Rules 030402 of the Police Service Rules 2006.

Ribadu was also accused of flagrantly disobeying the order and directive of the IG to report to the Force Headquarters on 24 November, along with his NIPSS coursemates, at the completion of their studies.

Furthermore, Ribadu was said to have disregarded his posting order and refused to proceed on transfer when he was posted to zone 5, Benin, as deputy commissioner of police in charge of administration, since 21 November, contrary to sections 349, 348 and 347 of the Police Act.

“Serious misconduct is a specific act of various wrongdoings and improper behaviours, and which is inimical to the image of the service and which can be investigated and if proven, will lead to dismissal. At the end of deliberations, the commission dismissed the officer from the force for acts of gross indiscipline, insubordination and absence from duty, acts singularly and collectively punishable under rules 03, 04,01 of the Public Service Rules 2006,” the statement read.

This is actually a good move for Ribadu because in the end the court will vindicate him and he will be reinstated

More Like, When you fight Corruption , Corruption fights Back (words of ribadu) atleast no one can argue that Nigerian Police = Corruption;
Re: Mallam Ribadu Dismissed From The Police! by cre8tivity(f): 6:00pm On Dec 23, 2008
when you fight corruption with corruption= unpleasant outcome
when you think you're bigger than the law= unpleasant outcome
when you disrespect your seniors = unpleasant outcome
when you operate selectively = unpleasant outcome
when you think you're bigger than nigeria = unpleasant outcome
when you accept illegal promotion = unpleasant outcome.

i see nothing wrong with this move, i think it is a great lesson for the youth. doing the right is fine, as long as the right thing is done correctly and accordingly. now, the next step is to arrest him, i think the great citizens of nigeria deserve to have answers to all these unanswered questions.
Re: Mallam Ribadu Dismissed From The Police! by ishmael(m): 6:02pm On Dec 23, 2008
but what is Yar'adua saying about all these nonsense that has been happening to Ribadu? is it that yar'adua is the one that is even masterminding the whole thing?  Is it that yar'adua was not happy that Ribadu was fighting corruption?

what do u mean by illegal promotion? should Ribadu have said NO to a promotion coming from the president? If you were in his shoes, would you say NO to a promotion coming from the president?
Re: Mallam Ribadu Dismissed From The Police! by IykeD1(m): 6:08pm On Dec 23, 2008
Unfortunately for the police, this move is actually a good move for Ribadu.  They are so daft and lacking in
the PR department that its just unbelievable but not surprising.  What they can't take away from him is that
he is considered by many all over the world as a corruption crusader.  Now, watch him steal the spotlight
from Okiro, Aaoondoka, Osayende, etc. combined.  This will even kill them more.  Stupid country run by
ultra stupid people.
Re: Mallam Ribadu Dismissed From The Police! by cre8tivity(f): 6:13pm On Dec 23, 2008
yaradua has nothing to do with this. npf has rules and regulations that must be obeyed at all time by every single officer. ribadu has made it clear several times that he wasn't going to obey any of these rules. he was given more than enough time to get himself together, but he refused. what else is left?  look people, nigeria police force has other officers that are watching every step. you can not disobey the rules and get away with it. i think npf has done the right thing. i'm sure that other officers got the message.

President ke?  Nevermind it was the same president that elevated virtually all the current actors to their current status using the same
ordinary and "extra" ordinary powers vested in the president.  Its just that, the power of the president becomes nullified when it comes
to taking actions that forwards a corruption crusader.  Nevermind that the current president was elected by a massively rigged electoral
process, you will think Ghana is a Western nation, what rule of law?

At last, Nigeria has becpme a banana republic. It is sad and disgraceful. How many people will be willing to fight corruption now?. I'm not saying he is a saint, but he did his best.

Yaradua is a complete FAILURE!

Hmm, this is news to me, I didn't know men of the NPF have stopped collecting bribes, these officers must be very effective across the country!
Re: Mallam Ribadu Dismissed From The Police! by cre8tivity(f): 6:21pm On Dec 23, 2008
not a good move for ribadu. ribadu as a dismissed officer or as an officer that was dismissed because he intentionally refused to show up for work and also disobeyed the rules and regulations, he wouldn't be able to hold any un position or fg position in nigeria. futhermore, now that he has been dismissed, he has no choice, but to come and answer all these questions. believe me, the answers are not favorable to him. it is a matter of time, it would all be out for us.

Hold another FGN position, are you really kidding? I really hope and pray that he Ribadu is not that stupid.

this absentee president, na wa for am. he hides inside his bedroom in aso rock while thugs and shoplifters take all his decisions for him. it has never been this bad.  sad

Why should i feel sorry for him? This is a man that haunted, taunted and hounded so many political enemies of Obasanjo and he was playing god to suit his master and believing he will sit down forever in that chair.

Now the roles are being reversed and he is screaming himself hoarse.

All those illegal detentions, maltreatment and dehumanizing things he and his Efcc cohorts were doing for close to 6 years will never be forgotten. He single handled waged a war against Atiku to prevent him from contesting. Whether Atiku is corrupt or not is not the issue but he did everything in his power to prevent him and push for obj's third term and not forgetting that both obj and atiku both had immunity from such bland actions. If atiku was corrupt, why spare the chief corruptor and even promote his 3rd term agenda?

He should suffer the humilation and more and this should be a lesson to other power hungry people that think they can rough shed people during their time in power as if it will never end. In fact through out his tenure he acted as if he wasnt a police officer and responsible to the police force.

Why should he given quadruple promotion above his mates when they both had the same equal standing and character to do the job? His appointment was a political master stroke, his dismissal is a political deft move!
Re: Mallam Ribadu Dismissed From The Police! by proo212(m): 6:38pm On Dec 23, 2008
Ibori ko? Ibori ni? This creativity guy likes the sound of his own voice too much.

I'm waiting for Madam Information Minister to put government spin on this one. Nigerians might not protest this one but everyone knows what is going on, Someone on one of the other boards gave her 2 weeks before her star begins to fade.

I guess she will convieniently avoid this one.
Re: Mallam Ribadu Dismissed From The Police! by luka1981(m): 6:41pm On Dec 23, 2008
@ cre8tivity, you own me just three questions to get one answer fom me.

i am not against anybody whose parents profited from corruption especially if that person is still single grin grin
though i want nigeria to be corruption free

@ cre8tivity what "illegal promotion"?na wah for you ooo.So Okiro that was taken over his senior to be the IG do you consider that one "illegal" too?

@Iyke honestly I was in Ghana when they did their election,you truly would think Ghana is a western country
