National Police Day: “Rise Above Indiscipline” – IGP To Officers

Nigeria Police Force

The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Olatunji Rilwan Disu, has declared a new era of accountability, professionalism and reform within the Nigeria Police Force. He recently had his say while speaking at the Second Edition of the National Police Day Grand Parade held at Eagle Square, Abuja, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, the moment is a defining point for the Force and the nation, and he can only pledge zero tolerance for misconduct plus a renewed commitment to earning public trust.

He concluded by emphasizing that National Police Day is a time for reflection, sacrifice and commitment to better policing standards.

His words, “This moment will define who we are and who we must become.

To their families, your sacrifice is not invisible. Under my leadership, your loved ones will be remembered in the standards we uphold daily.

The Nigeria Police Force must rise above indiscipline, misconduct, and actions that diminish the honour of the uniform.

There will be no sacred cows. Accountability will be firm, fair, and without exception.

You will see a Police Force that protects, not intimidates; that partners, not alienates; and that earns respect, not fear.

Policing in the 21st century must evolve, and we are evolving deliberately.”

WOW.
