PDP Kicks as Police Deploys 37 Commissioners
The Police Service Commission Wednesday announced the redeployment of 37 commissioners of Police for the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
This followed a recommendation by the acting Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu shortly after his appointment.
The PSC’s spokesman, Mr Ikechukwu Ani in a statement said the affected commissioners are expected to report to their new postings.
But in reaction, the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) described it as politically motivated.
The party claimed that the idea is to use the police to rig the 2019 election.
With the new posting, Mu’azu Zubairu would succeed Edgal Imohimi in Lagos State.
Other commissioners and postings were Buba Sanusi – Katsina State; Mohammed Wakili- Kano State; Rabiu Ladodo – Jigawa State and Ibrahim Sabo -Niger State. Alkassam Sanusi, Taraba State; Garba M. Mukaddas, Adamawa State; Omololu Bishi, Benue State; and Bola Longe, Nasarawa State.
Others include Isaac Akinmoyede – Plateau State; Odumosu Hakeem- Edo State; Olushola David- Bayelsa State; Adeleke Yinka- Delta State; Austin Iwero Agbonlahor – Cross River State; Bashir Makama- Akwa Ibom State; Awosola Awotunde- Ebonyi State; Belel Usman- Rivers State; Bello Makwashi- Gombe State.
