Image may contain: 2 people, people on stage and people sitting                      The attention of the Nigeria Police Force has been drawn to a report on page 11 of Vanguard Newspaper of Twenty Nineth of December credited to one Ola Ajayi captioned ''One Thousand Two  hundred and Sixty Policemen from S-West protest transfer to Northern States'' The report was in its entirely false,mischievous and capable of misleading the members of the public.The story is absolutely a shadowy imagination of the writer.
.However,it is imperative to set the record straight and disabuse the minds of Police personnel and other members of the public.
3.It is factual to State that transfers,reorganizations and postings in the Nigeria Police Force are routin and adminstrative.Officers and men of the Force are routine and adminstrative.Officers and men of the Force are rotated to maximize their effiency and effective service delivery for the Force.
4. The Nigeria Police Force is a Force is a Federal Security organization and the Inspector General of Police is empowered by the relevant provisions in the Frce Orders and Force Administrative Instructions to effect transfers,postings and redeployments of the personnel of the Force as deemed fit to position the Force to discharge its statutory responsibilities efficiently.
5. A thorough reading of the report shows that the signal quoted,''CB4770/FS/FHQ/ABJ/VOL.5/3,purportedly mandating the effected policemen from South West to assemble in Kaduna on January 4 next year was for the transfer of Officers from Kaduna State to neighbouring States and from neighbouring States to Kaduna State.This is not consistent with tant practices and tradition of the Service.To this extent the publication with all the allegations contained,is completely untrue and a futile distraction.
6. It is important t enlighten the public that Police Officers are subject to movements,transfers and postings within the Force and other lawful assignments while in service.
7.Refusal to proceed on postings and protest in this regard is serious misconduct not only in Nigeria Police Force but in every Government/Public agency which could attract commensurate sanctions.
8. Consequently,the Nigeria Police Force wishes to assure the media of its support as partner in ensuring a crime free society.The media is however,enjoined to resist the temptation of allowing mischievous person {s} to  use the pages of their esteemed Newspapers to cast aspersion on the policy of the Force.
9. The Inspector General of Police,IGP Ibrahim K. Idris NPM,mni,will continue to do his best for the benefit and well being of all the personnel of the Force.
