Police Spokesperson Deserves To Be Commissioner of Police – Young Professionals





The United Young Professionals has commended the Police Service Commission on the recent promotion of 3,665 senior officers of the Nigeria Police which includes the Police Public Relations Officer, ACP Jimoh Moshood.


In a press release by the National Coordinator of the United Young Professionals, Adewole Kehinde, he said that the Force PRO is long overdue to become not a Deputy Commissioner of Police but Commissioner of Police.

“To set the record straight, the promotion of ACP Jimoh Moshood, FPRO to Ag. DCP became necessary because of the existing vacancy in the Force Public Relations Department for the rank of Commissioner of Police.

“Furthermore, his promotion will assist to bring him at par in rank to the National Public Relations Officers of the under listed organisation that have equivalent of Commissioner of Police and Deputy Commissioner of Police as their Public Relations Officers
•The Nigerian Army has Brigadier General as Director Public Relations;
•The Nigeria Navy – has Commodore as Director of Naval Information;
•The Nigeria Air Force – has Air Vice Marshal as its Director of Public Relations;
•The Nigerian Customs Service – has Deputy Comptroller as its Public Relations Officer
•The Nigerian Immigration Service – has Deputy Comptroller as its Public Relations Officer;
•The Nigerian Prison service – has Deputy Comptroller as its Spokesperson.
•Federal Road Safety Corps – has Corps Commander as its Spokesperson

“From the above, Nigerians will agree that the Police Spokesperson in the person of ACP Jimoh Moshood deserves to be promoted as Deputy Commissioner of Police and probably Commissioner of Police in the coming months, so the insinuation that FPRO who was just promoted a few months ago to ACP is amongst officers promoted DCP, does not arise.

“We implore journalists, especially the online media; to do a thorough job before going to the press to avoid defamation of character and loss of confidence from the populace, 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...
