The Police Service Commission has approved the promotion of Nine hundred and fifty two (952) Assistant Superintendents of Police to the next rank of Deputy Superintendents.
Ikechukwu Ani, the of Head, Press and Public Relations at the commission in a statement, said the Commission also declined the promotion of 176 ASPs found to have retired from Service and another 3 suspected to have died.
The decisions were some of the highlights of the first Plenary Meeting of the 6th Board of the Commission held at the Corporate Headquarters of the Commission in Jabi Abuja.
Chairman of the Commission, DIG Hashimu Argungu congratulated the newly promoted Officers but warned that going forward, they must imbibe the spirit of nationalism and respect for the laws and regulations of the Police Service.
DIG Argungu noted that the Commission will no longer tolerate diversionary and unauthorised actions by serving officers, especially when they have duly established channels to ventilate any grievance.
He assured them that the commission will continue to ensure that their career progression are not hindered or trampled upon.
