Reacting to media reports that officers of the Force were planning to embark on a protest by March 26 to demand increment in their salaries and allowances, the Inspector General of I has made it clear that, no police officer would descend so low to protest salary increment because they are aware of the implications.
However, Usman Baba, stated on Monday that, stakeholders involved in the implementation of salary increment for officers of the Force are still working on the new salary package and would ensure it becomes a reality.
The IGP also said that the increment was President Muhammadu Buhari’s initiative without any demand from the police, saying the officers are aware that it is mutinous to plan any disruption of law enforcement services let alone carrying it out
