Police dismiss ASP, demote others

The Police Service Commission has dismissed one Assistant Superintendent of Police and approved the reduction in rank of a Superintendent and an ASP over various established cases of misconduct.


The commission also rejected 23 appeals from dismissed policemen  for reinstatement and restoration of ranks.


A statement by the PSC spokesman, Ikechukwu Ani on Friday said the decisions were the high points of the 15th plenary meeting of the commission held in Abuja and presided over by its Chairman, Mike Okiro, a retired Inspector-General of Police.


The commission  also approved the reinstatement of 10 other police officers, exonerated three and committed the dismissal of three others to retirement.


“One  serving DSP and ASP received the punishments of severe reprimand while an Assistant Commissioner, two DSPs and an ASP are to be issued letters of reprimand. An SP will receive letter of warning while an ASP was exonerated,” the statement added.


Following appeals from ex-police officers for reinstatement based on court judgments, the PSC approved the reinstatement and retirement of eight and rejected the appeals of 15 others.


The commission said its decisions had been communicated to the Inspector-General of Police, Solomon Arase for implementation.
