For the sake of the reputation and public image of the Nigeria Police, we expect the IG to order an investigation into this specific matter. For too long, the reputation and public impression of the police have been negatively affected by the misbehaviour of the bad eggs within. First, this is not yet the force he promised the Commander-in-Chief, President Muhammadu Buhari and Nigerians in his inaugural speech on January 16, 2019. It is not for nothing that the police force and other law enforcement agencies are described as ‘disciplined forces. While acknowledging what has been achieved so far vis-à-vis the huge task of re-orientation, we would urge that Adamu to redouble his efforts in ensuring that his men and women wear discipline as a badge of honour.
