Mr. Abba, who was fired yesterday by outgoing President Goodluck Jonathan,
offered his omnibus apologies in remarks
he made today while officially handing
over to the new acting Inspector General
of Police, Solomon Arase. The hand-over
took place at the police headquarters in
Abuja, Nigeria’s capital.

Mr. Suleiman appeared visibly sober and
remorseful as he spoke in an emotion-
laden voice. He disclosed that he
regretted his actions and inactions during
his tenure in office. He described the
appointment of Mr. Arase as the acting
police boss as a well-deserved honor.

He
also urged the management team, senior
officers as well as rank and file police
officers to support the new acting
Inspector General of Police to move the
force to a greater height.
He expressed gratitude to God for
sustaining him during his period in office
and for enabling him to leave the office in
good health. He commended President
Goodluck Jonathan for giving him the
opportunity to serve during his
administration, particularly for conducting
peaceful general elections that were
adjudged as credible, free and fair.


The former IGP called on the police to
carry out their duties with diligence
without fear or favor in the conduct of run-
off elections in three states.
In his inaugural speech, Mr. Arase stated
that, apart from routine operations, the
police have two major national
assignments where their professional
expertise and commitment will once again
be subjected to national and international
scrutiny. He said the first challenge has to do with the holding of governorship
elections in areas where the polling
results were declared inconclusive by officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Imo, Abia
and Taraba States. The second challenge
for the police, according to the acting IG, is
to ensure hitch-free presidential,
governorship and national as well as state
assembly inauguration ceremonies.


Mr. Arase promised to work closely with
INEC and other strategic stakeholders to
ensure violence-free elections in affected
states. He also assured Nigerians of their safety, adding that police officers would be instructed to treat all citizens with
civility and to hold citizens’ human rights
as sacred.
“Toward this end, a strategic police vision
document which encapsulates
Intelligence-led policing, community
partnership, restorative justice, re-
assurance policing and healthy respect for
human rights will be developed in due
course,” said the acting IG.

People in power should not step on other people's toes just because they can. Today you are an I.G, tomorrow u are an ordinary man on d street. Such is life!

No wonder this IGP was fired. How on earth can he say both elections he provided security for were free and fair. He may be having a different dictionary to define free and fair. Did he not hear Kwankwaso say the north used Almajiris to rig out Jonathan? Where were the police when that happened? Also where were d police whenthe north used underaged to thmbprint and vote in all northern states? Am sure Abba watched the video of these fraud in d presence of his police officers who did not make single arrest due partisanship. All d fraud parpetuated diuring d elections for which you and your men allowed unhindered contributed to your sack. The lections were never free and fair stop it.
