The Police Service Commission has dismissed 10 senior police officers and demoted eight others for misconduct.

The commission took the decision at its 8th plenary meeting which spanned three weeks and ended last Wednesday during which it also approved the promotion of 6,618 senior police officers, including a Deputy Inspector-General of Police.

Those dismissed include one Superintendent of Police, five Deputy Superintendents of Police and four Assistant Superintendents of Police.

The PSC, according to a statement in Abuja on Monday by its spokesman, Ikechukwu Ani, also demoted a Deputy Commissioner of Police, a Chief Superintendent of Police, four SPs, one DSP and ASP.

It said, “The commission also approved the punishment of severe reprimand for 16 officers, reprimand for 13 and letters of warning to four others. Two officers are to receive letters of advice while 11 were exonerated.”

I hope you check yourself either.

Nice one.

Buhari is working.

NPF contributes 50% of the problems we have in Nigeria, if the system was really working, maybe crime rate would have reduced by now.

Exactly my thought!

More need to go.

Good news. We need there names too

.

But top men in government commits all manners of misconducts.
Are they above the law? Is there nobody to dismiss them?
Naijaa..hmmm

Ikechukwu Ani?

Good

This will serve as deterrent to others that may want to engage in such criminal act.

free Hushpuppi!!!

I am shocked when one of the world's most corrupt security organizations punish their staff for misconduct.

Misconduct? Really?

The everyday activity of Nigeria's police is all about misconduct.

This means that if they have to discipline their staffers for misconduct, they will have to punish everyone who works there

Not even up to a drop in the ocean.....

Dem no look wella......

Only ten?

free Hushpuppi!!!

Shameless thing

Why not go to the US and do that yourself

Good news

Not good enough! But also a welcome move. This news to serve as a warning to those corrupt police officers all over Nigeria playing their heinous crimes ranging from armed day light robbery of the Nigerian populace!

Unless Nigeria do not want to move forward, modern day policing trends must be applied at all cost. A public panel should be set up to give check and balances!

Just 10

Even with measures like this, many of the police men still behave anyhow they want.

Wareva

What of the IG, he needs to go the same way too
