The Police Service Commission (PSC) has approved the promotion of 18 commissioners of police (CPs) to the next rank of Assistant Inspector- General of Police (AIG), and 33 Deputy Commissioners of Police to the substantive rank of CP.


Former chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ibrahim Larmode, who was initially recommended for DIG post by his close friend, the new IGP, Adamu Muhammed, was dropped by the PSC on the grounds that he was a junior commissioner of police.
