He said: “The Inspector General of Police, IGP, Ibrahim Idris feels that you are worthy to be elevated due to your hard work, professionalism and zero tolerance to corruption, following recommendation by the Police Service Commission, PSC.
“The IG expects you to put in your best by shunning corruption and other vices when dealing with the public.
“You must remain humble in the discharge of your duties and we hope this promotion will serve as moral booster for you to carry out your duties.
