[b]Acting Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Mr
Mohammed Abubakar, says training
programmes for police personnel this year
have been put on hold because of poor and
outdated facilities Abubakar said this in Uyo on Tuesday while
addressing officers and men of the Nigeria
Police Force on his maiden visit to Akwa Ibom
command after his appointment as the IGP. He said while every officer in the police was
entitled to training courses, failure at courses
after second attempts would not be tolerated. “Our training institutions are so bad enough, I
will not allow my officers to go on courses and
use their money to buy water, bread and other
needs. “We are making efforts to change the police
uniform to a better uniform that will make you
to be respected. “There is need for national rebirth in the Nigeria
Police, the era of corruption is over. We will
allow competence and merit to take place,”
Abubakar declared. He said that posting in the police would
henceforth be based on the individual’s
capacity to deliver while promotion would be
based on performance at promotion courses. “We must redouble our effort in changing the
damaging image that we have in the police
today. “There is need for you to change your attitude
to work, there is need for us to go back to the
basis of policing in this country. So many things
have been done unprofessionally,” the IGP
said. He, however, commended the Akwa Ibom
Police Command for reducing the crime rate in
the state and urged the command to be
proactive. Meanwhile, the IGP who was on a working visit
to Akwa Ibom Command used the occasion to
inaugurate a special crime-fighting squad
funded by the state government and code-
named Quick Response Squad (QRS). NAN[/b]
