 PRESS RELEASE


FORCE REORGANIZATION: IGP ORDERS RESTRUCTURING, SANITIZATION OF SCID KEBBI.


•Harps on Specialization of Investigative Units, Commitment to Rule-of-Law.


In furtherance of the vision of the Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, Ph.D., NPM., to establish specialized investigative units within the Nigeria Police Force, the IGP has ordered the immediate sanitization and restructuring of the Kebbi State Command Criminal Investigation Department (CID), in a strategic move aimed at enhancing the effectiveness and professionalism of police officers attached to the section in the State. 


The IGP has directed that all officers currently occupying positions within the Kebbi State CID be reassigned to other commands, formations, and units, including training schools. This decision is part of a broader initiative to inject expertise into the Department, ensuring the most capable hands are in place to emplace modern policing ideals through standardised investigations and intelligence gathering in line with the provisions of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act, 2015, the Police Act, 2020, and other relevant laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. 


The IGP has also expounded on the need to carry out consistent training of officers involved in investigations, as a follow up to the workshop held with Heads of all Police Investigative Units at Abuja on the 11th of November, 2024.


This initiative aligns with the IGP's commitment to specializing and standardizing all investigative units within the Force, ensuring commitment to the rule-of-law. By implementing these changes, the Force intends to improve the quality of investigations, enhance public trust, and ensure that justice is served efficiently and effectively. The reorganisation of other investigative units within the Force will be carried out following the receipt of reports from the technical committees on the reforms. 


The Nigeria Police Force remains committed to transparency and accountability, dedicated to its mission of safeguarding the lives and properties of all citizens. This restructuring will significantly contribute to the ongoing efforts to combat crime and enhance the security of our communities.
