Who still cares about the Nigerian Police Force? To be honest, NPF lost my respect years ago. I see them as typical Civil Servants on government payroll.
Nigeria Police need thorough rebranding of some sort not the last Uniform change they did. Corrupt as F**.
I will even suggest Daura D start his anti-corruption show with them. If he can reform the NPF and make them uncompromising and stop these boy-boy loyalty stunt they do , I think no sane politician will dare loot the treasury.
All these policemen from rank and file are the one who physically carry the loots.  Bros abeg wetin u dey drink? Barman whr u one bottle of Origin for my man. 1 Like |

One major priority of the present government ought to be reforms. Virtually every sector of the economy needs reform and government shouldn't shy away from it.
There's need for a total and complete reformation of Nigeria Police. What i will suggest is a creation of an elite police force comprising of the very best hands and brains with the minimum qualifications of B.Sc and HND. They should be allowed to run parralel with the current crop of what we have as police. They should have their own separate police stations and be allowed to function independently from the current police. With their own IG at the top of the command chain. Then gradually, the current police should be phased off with all the personnels retired and paid their compensation. 4 Likes |

@op good job at compiling this but you should have given a brief or profile on each of the ranks as you did on the Senior officers cadre.
Also a thread on the equivalent of the ranks in other forces (army, navy and airforce) comes to mind. Can someone please take the pain and open it.
Informative and educative posts like this should be encouraged by all not many celebrity poos that desecrates the forum and bores the user Bro, there is no Rank equivalent between police and the military hence, civil police are civilian not military as such, The least rank in the Military (Private,Rating or ACM) is equivalent to Inspector General of Police. |

The Office of the Assistant Inspector-General of Police is provided for by section 5 and 8 of the Police Act. He shall act for the Inspector-General of Police in the event of the absence of the Inspector-General of Police and Deputy Inspector-General of Police
The Commissioner of Police (In-charge of contingents in a state)
Section 5 of the Police Act, in accordance with the provisions of section 215 (2), of the Nigeria Constitution, provides for the Office and rank of a Commissioner of Police who shall be in Control of contingents of the Police Force stationed in a State. He is subject however, to the command of the Inspector-General of Police or who-so-ever acts for him, in his absence.
Every other rank in the Force is legally provided for by section 5 of the Police Act. The Command structure of the Nigeria Police can be presented in order of hierarchy as in the chain here under.
