Massive Trimuph as IGP declared Innocent, NPF PRO Jimoh Moshood Promoted

NPF PRO Jimoh Moshood Promoted – The Integrity Youth Alliance, has risen in defence of the Nigeria Police Force, under the able leadership of the Inspector-General of Police, IGP, Ibrahim Idris.

Reacting to a publication by an online Medium, ‘Aledeh.com’, titled: “EXCLUSIVE: Police Officers Pay N2 Million For Promotion, Buhari, Osinbajo’s Orderlies, FPRO Benefit”, the National Coordinator of the Integrity Youth Alliance, Kelvin Adegbenga, disclosed that the online medium, no doubt is working as an agent of a Retired top Police brass, as he has refused to do his investigations properly before publication.

He said: “Someone like the Force PRO, Ag. DCP Jimoh Moshood, should be Commissioner of Police by now, considering that fact that he has spent 8 years on a particular rank.”

He further stated that those who are aggrieved should follow the proper channels of communication in the Force, to report their case, rather than spinning out lies on the Mike Okiro-led Board of the Police Service Commission, and the Inspector-General of Police, IGP, Ibrahim Idris.

“We challenge Aledeh.com under the Whistle Blower Act, to name the Officers that paid N2 million to be promoted, as well as the Commissioners who received the money in the Police Service Commission.

“The Inspector-General of Police, IGP, Ibrahim Idris, we know, has never influenced or pressurized promotions, postings, nor cases, before the Nigeria Police, not to talk of the Police Service Commission”, Adegbenga stressed.

“Aledeh’s call for a total restructuring of the Police is baseless, as IGP Ibrahim has commenced the restructuring already. It is also the obligation of the Council of States, to advise the President on who should be an IGP, so there is no need to set up a Committee of Ex-IGPs to do that”, the statement concluded.

Speaking at the occasion in Lagos, Peters described Comptroller Binga as an experienced and intelligent officer, even as he promised to tap from his wealth of knowledge, as well as expertise whenever a situation arises.

He said, “The Command under Comptroller Binga performed very well in curtailing smuggling on sea. We are ready to build on the achievements of my predecessor and to step up security surveillance on the creeks, waterways. In doing so, we will always seek the expertise of Comptroller Binga.”

He pointed out, “Customs is doing a lot in tackling smuggling on high sea. Western Marine Command is a terrain for professionals. It is the Federal Operations on Sea.

Amount generated is over the target of N937,286,121,586.00 set for the year 2019 and N139,241,835,082.29 over the sum of N1,202,448,733,244.89 generated in 2018.

The service revenue generation profile has continued to be on the rise annually as the ongoing reforms in the Service insists on:

  • Strategic deployment of officers strictly using the standard operating procedure.
  • Strick enforcement of extant guidelines by the tariff and trade department.
  • Automation of the Customs process thereby eliminating vices associated with the manual process.
  • Robust stakeholder sensitization resulting in more informed/voluntary compliance.
  • Increased disposition of officers and men to put national interest above selves.
  • The partial border closure which has forced cargoes that could have been smuggled through the porous borders to come through the sea and airports raised revenue collection from ports.

Before the commencement of the border drill on 20th August 2019, revenue generation was between N4 billion to N5 billion but now NCS generates between N5 billion to N7 billion daily.
The partial border closure is a decisive action against the challenging issue of trans-border crime and criminalities, fueled by the noncompliance to ECOWAS Protocol on the transit of goods by neighboring Countries.NCS hopes that the ongoing discussions with our neighbours will yield permanent solutions to the challenges of border security.

The Service wishes to express its readiness to strictly implement the outcome of the ongoing diplomatic engagements.
In the same vein, the Service efforts to prevent the entry of items that could compromise the security of our citizens, the National Economy and the well being of our people resulted in the seizures of 30,906 assorted items with a duty paid value of N62,134,426,199.00.

These seizures include arms, ammunition, illicit drugs, used clothing, vegetable oil, frozen poultry, and foreign rice among others that have grave consequences on the economic security and well being of Nigerians.
While we give our assurances of total commitment to the course of nation-building, we call on Nigerians, especially the business community to support the NCS on the ongoing drive to robustly contribute to National Security and create an enabling environment for businesses to thrive in the country.

DC, Joseph Attah
