Integrated Online Media Miscued On Police Promotion



The Integrity Youth Alliance said a purported integrated online media; Aledeh.com goofed on her so called exclusive publication.

Reacting to the publication titled “EXCLUSIVE: “Police Officers Pay N2 Million For Promotion, Buhari, Osinbajo’s Orderlies, FPRO Benefit”, the National Coordinator of Integrity Youth Alliance, Kelvin Adegbenga said that the online medium, no doubt is working as an agent of a retired top Police brass as he has refused to do his investigations properly before publication.

“Someone like the Force PRO, Ag. DCP Jimoh Moshood should be Commissioner of Police by now considering that fact that he has spent 8 years on a particular rank, Adegbenga said.

He further said that those who are aggrieved should follow the proper channels of communications in the Force to report their case rather than spinning out lies on the Mike Okiro-led board of the Police Service Commission and the Inspector General of Police, IGP Ibrahim Idris.

“We challenge Aledeh.com under the Whistle Blow Act to name the officer that paid N2million to be promoted as well as the Commissioners who receives the money in the Police Service Commission.

“It is a pure fabrication by Aledeh.com that ‘the PSC initially declined Moshood’s promotion to ACP in February for attacking them in the media but pressure from the IGP ensured he was eventually promoted’.

“The Inspector General of Police, IGP Ibrahim Idris we know has never influenced or pressurized promotion, posting nor cases before the Nigeria Police not to talk of the Police Service Commission, Adegbenga said.

“Aledeh’s calls for a total restructuring of the police is baseless as IGP Ibrahim has commenced the restructuring already. It is also the obligation of the Council of States to advise the President on who should be an IGP,  so there is no need to set up a Committee of Ex-IGPs to do that, the statement concluded.

OPINION: Politicising Tragedy

 The sad occurrence of the collapse of a 21 storey building in Lagos was a monumental disaster. Certainly the loss of more than 20 lives up to-date is a painful human tragedy. All attention must be focussed on what happened, why it happened and how can future occurrences be prevented all together!. Governor Babajide Sanwoolu, as usual of him, immediately rose to the occasion. Cut short his schedule official engagement in Rome and went to the venue straight from the airport. Even before his arrival the General Manager in charge was immediately sent on compulsory leave. Within 24hrs the governor has visited the site and the surviving victims about twice and a technical enquiry committee of capable and highly credible professionals has been put in place to unravel whatever happened and to advice government appropriately on issues including that of culpability, negligence and possible acts of criminality. It is widely reported that the number of floors constructed was far in exces...
