 PSC Cautions CPs Against Unregulated Creation of Tactical Units


The Police Service Commission (PSC) has cautioned state commissioners of police against indiscriminately setting up tactical units, warning that they should not replace recognized police departments, particularly at state command headquarters.


In a statement by Ikechukwu Ani, Head of Press and Public Relations, the PSC noted that some state commissioners have misused these units, undermining established police departments led by Deputy Commissioners of Police.


During the screening of nine commissioners recommended by the Inspector General of Police (IGP) for state command appointments, the PSC emphasized that the new CPs must ensure recognized departments remain functional.


Meanwhile, the Commission approved the IGP’s recommendations for the appointment of:

--Ibrahim Balarabe Maikaba (Kano State) as CP Zamfara

--Breret Emmanuel Simon (Plateau State) as CP Taraba

--Christopher Ado Emmanuel (Niger State) as CP Yobe

--Olusegun Eyitayo Omosayin (Ondo State) as CP Cross River

--Adamu Abdullahi Elleman (Jigawa State) as CP Niger

--Sani Omolori Aliyu (Kogi State) as CP Bauchi

Bello Shehu (Gombe State) as CP Katsina


The newly appointed CPs underwent an interactive oral interview coordinated by DIG Taiwo Lakanu, a PSC commissioner representing the police.


PSC Chairman, Hashimu Argungu, urged the officers to prevent the misuse of tactical units and ensure they do not take over the responsibilities of recognized departments. He also stressed the importance of collaborating with Deputy Commissioners appointed by the IGP.


DIG Lakanu advised the CPs to foster trust among their subordinates and communities, including youths, traditional leaders, and organizations. He warned against setting up unnecessary squads, emphasizing the need for proper coordination in policing operations.
