Malam Nasir El-Rufai has submitted a petition to the Police Service Commission (PSC) against the unprofessional conduct, abuse of office and serial violations of the Police Act by some officers of the Kaduna State Police Command.
A press release signed by Muyiwa Adekeye, Media Adviser to Malam Nasir El-Rufai, said the petition details the particulars of the complaint and requested an immediate, impartial, and exhaustive investigation into the unlawful, and unconstitutional conduct of the Commissioner of Police and some officers of the Kaduna State Police Command.
Malam El-Rufai informed the PSC that he had earlier addressed a petition to the Inspector-General of Police on the egregiously unlawful acts executed by some officers and men of the Nigerian Police since the resumption in Kaduna of the current Commissioner on 30th December 2024.
“I am writing out of concern that the Nigerian Police, warts and all, is the only frontline law enforcement institution that we have. The duty of all citizens is not only to support it at every level, but also to ensure that the Commission is provided opportunities to deliver on its regulatory powers to enforce discipline and promote sound and ethical conduct by all police officers at all times.
“This laudable goal can only be attained if the Commission’s attention is continuously drawn to any egregious conduct of some bad eggs that serve interests other than those conferred by law in Section 4 of the Police Act, 2020. Such conduct thereby negatively affects the image of the Police and undermines public confidence in its leadership.”
