The Crime Reporters Association of Nigeria has congratulated acting Assistant Inspector General of Police , Sylvester Alabi , Commissioners of Police: Ari Mohammed Ali and Frank Mba, for their promotion to the rank of Assistant Inspector General of Police by the Police Service Commission.
The association also felicitates with the Commander, Intelligence Response Team, IRT, Tunji Disu, on his elevation to the rank of Commissioner of Police.
In a statement by the General Secretary of CRAN, Niran Odufayo, the body noted that the inclusion of the senior police officers in the list of policemen promoted to the next rank was in order having followed the trajectory of “these fine senior police officers as an association.”
The statement reads further, “AIG Alabi has over the years demonstrated a rare professionalism and dedication to the Nigeria Police Force.
“For the Delta State Police Commissioner, CP Ali, now AIG, his operational maneuver has brought the reign of various robbery and kidnap gangs to an end.
In the same vein, the antecedents of the former Force spokesman, Frank Mba , who was recently deployed to the Ogun State Police Command as the Commissioner of Police , are also there to speak for him. His feats in less than two months of his stay in Ogun are startlingly.
“Though the promotion of the Commander IRT, CP Disu, is long overdue, it is imperative to note that this erudite , operational and sagacious cop has never failed to police with a human face .
“These attributes have not only enhanced the team’s intelligence gathering, it has also helped to project the Nigeria Police in a positive light.
“To whom much is given, much is expected; thus, CRAN hereby urges these senior officers to see their elevation to the next ranks as a call for more professionalism and commitment towards aligning the paths of their subordinates for democratic values, human rights and the rule of law.”
