Whyem15:



Moses Jitoboh isn't the next most senior officer( he joined the police force in 1994 while Usman Alkali Baba joined 1988). According to NPF website, he is only an acting DIG while Usman Alkali Baba is a full DIG. https://www.npf.gov.ng/info/contacts_mgt.php
Although one would have expected him to be chosen to be the next IGP solely because he is the only officer that can be considered for that post that still has more than 4 years of service(9 years). Majority of the rest will retire either in 2022 or 2023. Going by the new police act, he should be the next IGP and that is probably why Usman Alkali Baba is serving in an acting role( he was announced as acting IGP). The only advantage Moses has over the others is age and time left in service. Usman should retire 2023 and Moses will be the most senior NPF officer.

I would have been smarter for the administration to choose Joseph Egbunike for the acting position instead because he is the only one from the south east and that might delay things a bit though he too will be retiring next year.

Just confirmed that Joseph Egbunike was promoted from CP to DIG while Usman Alkali was promoted from AIG to DIG December last year. So Usman is actually his senior if that counts at all.

Whyem15:


IGPs from 1999-2010
Musiliu Smith (1999 - 2002)
Mustafa Adebayo Balogun (2002 - 2005)
Sunday Ehindero (2005 - 2007)
Mike Mbama Okiro (2007 - 2009)
Ogbonna Okechukwu Onovo

All southerners yet no meaningful progress in the police force.

Of the 21 IGPs this country has ever had, 11 were from the north(including the new one) and 10 from the south yet the police force has never made any meaningful progress.

Of the 10 southerners, 9 are Christians, I do not know how many of the northerners are Christians or Muslims.

You want the government to keep sharing appointments based on religion and ethnicity yet you expect meaningful results. One day we will all understand.

DubaiLandLord:
Though I agree with what you say, but, you're quoting me out off point.

Go through my post again, make sure you read and understand what I wrote up there.

But if you still feel you want to keep on going this route, then you must list out the COAS that have been appointed from 1960-1999. You should also add their religion too.

We(Nigerians) have always have FCT ministers since 1976(or 1975 when ABJ was created, it was built with mostly oil money gotten from the Niger Delta) till the Seat of power was eventually moved to Abuja permanently from Lagos in 1991. Can you kindly list out the names of the FCT ministers we have been having since 1991-2021? You can also list the ones that have been the FCT minister from 1976 to 1991 and don't forget to add their religion too

We all saw how Onnoghen was dispose as the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Nigeria even though it was initially vehemently opposed by the National Judicial Commission... Buratai was accused of stealing, there were even glaring evidence, but today, he is an Ambassador how about Monguno?

See bro, you don't want to go this route with me

Since GMB have been appointing mallams as IGP, have insecurity not gotten worst

Nah the weaklings southern politicians like GEJ I go still dey blame sha

lebuhsi:


when I read this story, I get the feeling that the Americans were condescending to the Nigerian intelligence community, refusing to share intel on time, and even when they did, they shared grainy photos with little or no operational value to the intelligence community, they was also mutual distrust between them.
the President was more concerned about PR so that didn't really send the right message on priorities.

P.S I think I have a very good idea on who the "local informant" was/is

Is anyone here aware of NAF SOF operations In cameroon.

Now that you have the information, how has the appointments benefited Nigeria?

Onnoghen resigned after the NJC recommended his compulsory retirement after allegations of fraud.

Good governance should never be about religion or ethnicity. And we should always endeavor to separate politics from governance.

JackWolfskin:


Who do you think?

JOSCOFELIX:
bro, i have be working to get info about that.

Mr Ahmad Salkida. He fled the country around that time to the U.A.E I think, he stayed there for a while, only to return when things cooled off

IGpro1:
if I were that guy, I'd make sure I troll you till you run off... should he stop contributing because you don't accept his posts.
he has gradually reduced the info he shares here, yet even if na 'hmm' he types, you quickly run to SHALAYE.
stop behaving like a deprived house wife.
babaowen aka dubailandlord has been posting anything he lays his hands on here, even went as far as comparing the Nigerian army that defeated the combined force of all Biafrans to a ragtag ESN, (forgetting that bokoharam did worse when they started, but today are only in the fringes of borno.)
yet you've never as much as say 'pim' to him.

free the young man or deactivate your account if you can't stand his post.

NafeesaAA:


80% of Moses Jitoboh mates are still CSP, a few are ACP, he got accelerated promotions while ADC to GEJ. He has never held any operational capacity during his middle age ranking. He was never a DPO or Area Commander which are the two most important cadre where experience are gathered.

In terms of seniority, DIG Ops Sanusi Lemu from Niger State is the most senior,

When you know enough to know a quack is a quack, you might overlook things, but when the quack starting arguing with people that actually know, or makes too much quackery speaks, he becomes an annoying house fly.

If this is true and possible, it shows the Nigerian police lacks an effective structure and is merely a business entity, whose in the mafian industry . Federally administered gangsters and it's obvious in the police .

You have the time to list out police officers names from 1999 till 2010, but you can't list out the names of FCT ministers from 1976 to 2021... Fantastic

I asked for the names of the past COAS from 1960 to 1999

In Nigeria, good governance have a connection with religion and ethnicity. Except you wan dey lie sha... See, make FG dey share everything equally between the 6 geopolitical regions. If we want a country that governonce would never be about religion or ethnicity then we should either split the country or go the UK way.

Should a clueless man like GMB still be ruling Nigeria? A man his driver took some documents to, and the man signed it o... Can you imagine such nonsense

The military regime really favoured the North, cause their people occupied most of the important positions in the military and there were far more Northern officers to that of the southern officers... Or how can you explain a situation whereby the North with just one state before the military Government of Gowon took over from Ironsi now having more states than the south? There were 3 states in the south before Gowon took over.

See, there is something called Federal Character in Nigeria, let the Government always strictly adhere to this for peace to reign in this country.

Mallams are not the only competent officers in the Nigeria police force. Buratai spent close to 6 years as the COAS even though the fight against terrorists no get head or tail.

Someone scoring 1 in an exam will gain admission into a unitary school with someone that scored 45 base on federal character.

Person wey score like 20 for exam go gain admission into university to study a course wey another person score 50 but still no gain admission base on federal character.

No matter what, federal Character principle must be adhere to.

tutudesz:

BabaOwen you really need to stop this your tribal warfare O!! Does federal character cover appointment of security head

iamnen:




Please go through your list of COAS. There are about 17 northerners there and not 13

17 northerners
8 southerners

DubaiLandLord:
Even the Nigerian president himself is a tribalist. Onnoghen had no case before he became the CJN, immediately he became the president, one useless group spring up and accuse him of corruption.

Why has he not been prosecuted by the EFCC years after?

See, federal character must be strictly adhere to in everything. Have insecurity not gotten worse since 2015 the vegetable take over? If the vegetable is telling us only mallams are competent, then why is almost all the Northern states backward and filled with different terrorists groups from Zamfara to Borno state.

During the tenure of GEJ, Muslims groups in the North were accusing the military of giving admission to christians in the North states.

Northerners are heading almost all the important security agencies in Nigeria. This shouldn't be so.

Whyem15:

My point isn't even about which tribes/religions gets which appointment but about having competent people in positions irrespective of tribes and faith if we really want progress.

KingAzubuike:

Those are different from what's presently going on with IPOB and ESN. In Zaki biam for example, it was a retaliation for the killing of about 19 soldiers by a militia group. What's happening today involving ESN is no agitation against the military. They got no business with the military, what they have business with is the fulanis and their rampaging herdsmen killing people on another man's soil. Biafra can't just sit and watch, that's why they set up ESN just like oduwa republic set up Amotekun. The ESN aren't killing Nigerian soldiers and will never commit such heinous atrocity.

jpphilips:



How many law enforcement have been maimed so far? Do you really understand the job of the military? Fulani militia problem is a sub Saharan African problem, it is not peculiar to Nigeria let alone South east, infact we have had militia attacks in NW & NC more that SE, that excuse of picking up arms because of Fula militia problem is lame and baseless.

Agreed, it is the state's responsibility to provide security for everyone, however, the state will do that within the ambit of her capabilities, Nigeria hasn't provided Security for Bornu indigenes for 12yrs since their insurgency started, have they picked up arms against the state?
NW has nearly 6 active hotspots including Kaduna, have they picked up arms against the state?
You dont know what you are saying, very soon, you will understand that Fulani militia is a better enemy to the new one you just made, they are coming, you can cry Genocide later.

tutudesz:

Does federal character cover the appointment of security chiefs How can the security agencies and the military work ,when people like keep shouting tribalism Everytime
