Nigeria Police Salary Structure by Lamarking: 11:19am On Jan 30, 2019 |
Over the years, there have always been a clarion call on the need to boost the salary structure of the Nigeria Police. Pundits believe that when the salary structure of the law enforcement agency is increased, it will boost their moral thereby making them active in their service to people and the nation.
An average Nigeria Police was seen as a potential enemy such that the addage 'The police is your friend' was simply ironic.
The Police had an imaginery ₦20 tag which made taxi drivers their favorite. Nigerians believed that the police were the most corrupt sector in Nigeria at some point and this sparked a whole lot of controversies.
With this said, let delve into the history of the Nigeria Police.
History Of The Nigeria Police Nigeria Police Force was first established in 1820. The first person to have the highest rank in all the police is commissioner general colonel KK. In 1879 a 1,200-member armed paramilitary Hausa Constabulary was formed. In 1896 the Lagos Police was established. A similar force, the Niger Coast Constabulary, was formed in Calabar in 1894 under the newly proclaimed Niger Coast Protectorate. In the north, the Royal Niger Company set up the Royal Niger Company Constabulary in 1888 with headquarters.
When the protectorates of Northern and Southern Nigeria were proclaimed in the early 1900s, part of the Royal Niger Company Constabulary became the Northern Nigeria Police, and part of the Niger Coast Constabulary became the Southern Nigeria Police. During the colonial period, most police were associated with local governments (native authorities). In the 1960s, under the First Republic, these forces were first regionalised and then nationalised.
The NPF performed conventional police functions and was responsible for internal security generally; for supporting the prison, immigration, and customs services; and for performing military duties within or outside Nigeria as directed. Plans were announced in mid-1980 to expand the force to 200,000. By 1983, according to the federal budget, the strength of the NPF was almost 152,000, but other sources estimated it to be between 20,000 and 80,000.
Reportedly, there were more than 1,300 police stations nationwide. Police officers were not usually armed but were issued weapons when required for specific missions or circumstances. They were often deployed throughout the country, but in 1989 Babangida announced that a larger number of officers would be posted to their native areas to facilitate police- community relations
The Current Nigeria Police The Nigeria Police Force had it's name changed to the Nigerian Police. It is the principal law enforcement agency in Nigeria with a staff strength of about 371,800. There are currently plans to increase the force to 650,000, adding 280,000 new recruits to the existing 370,000. The NPF is a very large organization consisting of 36 State commands grouped into 12 zones and 7 administrative organs. The agency is currently headed by IGP Adamu Muhammed.
