Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Mr Solomon Arase, in Abuja on Monday decorated four newly promoted Assistant-Inspectors General of Police (AIGs).
They are AIGs Tili Abubakar, Opadokun John, Ogunbayode David and Dorothy Gimba.
Arase charged them to work harder wherever they were posted to.
He said “the position you are today requires a lot of responsibility.’’
Abubakar,who responded for others, promised their dedication to duty and loyalty to the force.
“We will remain more dedicated and loyal to the police force.
“We will continue to uphold the good tenets of the Nigeria police force’’, he said.
He expressed gratitude to the I-G for finding them worthy for promotion.
Meanwhile, the Inspector-General of Police, Mr Solomon Arase in Abuja on Monday inaugurated a police officers’ mess and 35 suites.
Arase said as the head of the force, the welfare of men of the Nigeria police was his top priority.
“As long as I am the Inspector-General of Police, the welfare of my men is my number one priority.
“I am very unapologetic about the welfare of police officers’’, he said.
He said the project would help solve the accommodation problem being faced by officers when they come to Abuja on official duty.
DIG Mamman Tsafe in charge of Logistics and Supply, said accommodation was a complicated problem for the police.
He said the project would rake in revenue for the force if its maintenance was sustained.
Tsafe commended Arase for his vision and commitment to complete the project started by former Inspector-General of Police, Ogbonnaya Onovo, in 2009.
Other projects inaugurated by Arase included the commissioners’ quarters and the police finance building.
