No fewer than seven newly -promoted police officers were decorated on Wednesday with their new ranks by the Assistant Inspector-General of Police, Sikiru Akande at the Zone 11 police headquarters, Osogbo, Osun State capital.
Among those decorated were, ACP Ogbonu Taiwo Popoopla, ACP Akinsanya Babajide and ACP Martins Olaleye Bamigboye, who elevated from Chief Superintendent to Assistant Commissioner of Police.
Those elevated from the rank of Superintendent of Police to Chief Superintendent of Police (CSP) were CSP Omomukuyo Tawakatu Abiola, CSP Yinka Kuku, CSP Israel Obadofin, CSP Akanbi Tawakatu Bolanle and CSP Janet Awotuyi.
Speaking at the ceremony, AIG Akande charged the newly-promoted officers to braze up to the challenges ahead of them just as he enjoined them to bring their wealth of experience to bear in their new positions.
According to him, “In the Nigeria Police Force, we value promotions very much. Promotion is also a way of telling you to work harder; it is an added responsibility to all the responsibilities that you have been doing before your elevation.”
“We are to work hard to see that we maintain a low level of insecurity in our zone,” AIG Akande charged the officers.
“The vision of the police force, especially under the present Inspector General of Police, is to prioritize the welfare of personnel and reward hard work with promotions.”
The AIG Akande who congratulated the newly promoted police officers, charged them to reciprocate the gesture by exhibiting high level of professionalism, civility to members of the public and respect for human rights.
He urged the officers to justify their promotions so as to earn higher positions in the future.
“Surely, promotion is a way of encouraging hard work and productivity in an organisation.”
