The major opposition party in Nigeria, advised the newly appointed Inspector-General of Police, to immediately begin the re-engineering of the force to restore professionalism and adherence to rules of engagement.
The party made the call in a statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Mr Kola Ologbondiyan, in the late hours of Tuesday in Abuja, immediately after the State House decoration.
Ologbondiyan urged the new Police boss to immediately set up the process of re-orientating and insulating the force from partisan politics.
Besides, he appealed to him to urgently take steps to address “the bastardisation of promotion” in the Police.
PDP also urged Adamu to remove all templates of alleged election rigging in the forthcoming elections.
“This is in addition to immediately setting up a process that guarantees proper welfare of officers and men of the Nigeria police.
“He must note that the whole world is watching him and we urge him not to fail the nation, which he owes his allegiance,” he said.
He finally urged him to learn from the mistakes of his predecessor, Ibrahim Idris, to avoid unnecessary pitfalls.
