Also appointed are Mssrs Olanrewaju Olawale for the Lagos State Command;  Miller Dantawaye for the Akwa Ibom State Command and  Anthonia Anya for the Ebonyi State Command

 In a statement on Friday, the Head of Press and Public Relations for the PSC, Ikechukwu Ani, announcing the appointments  of the new commissioners, quotes the commission’s Chairman, DIG Hashimu Argungu (retd.), as imploring the new commissioners  to make a positive difference in the security management of their States of posting. 


The statement read in part, “DIG Argungu said the commission will monitor their performance, stressing that they should not waste time to hit the ground running. “He told the new commissioners that they must build a competitive, competent, and efficient police force in their states of posting, adding that the commission will continue to encourage them for optimum service delivery. 


“He added that their appointments should be seen as a call to greater dedication to the service of their fatherland. “The approval of the postings signed by the Secretary to the Commission, Chief Onyemuche Nnamani has been conveyed to the Inspector General of Police for implementation.”
