Ikechukwu Ani, Head of Press and Public Relations, confirmed this in a statement on Friday.

 
The Police Service Commission has announced new appointments and promotions.
 
PSC appointed AIG Yahaya Sahabo Abubakar as Deputy Inspector General of Police.
 
Ikechukwu Ani, Head of Press and Public Relations, said in a statement on Friday that DIG Yahaya Sahabo was, until his appointment, the AIG in charge of Zone 14 Katsina.
 
“He will represent the North East Geopolitical Zone in the Police Management Team, replacing DIG Habu Sani, who recently retired as DIG Force Intelligence Bureau and represented the Zone.

“The Commission also approved the promotion of 122 other senior police officers: ten Commissioners of Police to the rank of Assistant Inspectors General, fifteen Deputy Commissioners of Police to substantive Commissioners, and thirty-six Assistant Commissioners of Police to Deputy Commissioners. Sixty-one Chief Superintendents of Police were also elevated to the rank of Assistant Commissioners of Police,” the statement said.
 
According to the statement, the decisions were taken at the extraordinary management meeting of the commission held on Thursday, June 6, 2024, and presided over by the chairman of the commission, Solomon Arase, retired Inspector General of Police.
 
“The 15 Deputy Commissioners of Police, 10 Commissioners, and AIG Abubakar appeared before the Commission in session for the compulsory interactive promotion interview, which is one of the requirements for their promotion to the next rank.

“At the interactive sessions, the commission chairman told the officers that in the emerging dynamic and ubiquity of crime and criminality within the revolution in information and communication technology, ‘charting out pathways for effective policing and internal security management would have to necessarily orient from informed crafting and employment of an applicable mix of strategies, standard operating procedures, and tactics by the police, other law enforcement, and regulatory agencies of the state, mainstreaming a knowledge-driven police force staffed by a mentally mobile workforce refined for optimum service delivery,'” it said.
 
Arase charged them to be genuinely committed to their sacred responsibility of securing the Nigerian nation by effectively protecting lives and property, preventing and containing crimes and criminality across the nation.
 
He pledged the commission’s readiness to ensure that promotions of officers and men are regular and predictable.
