Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Assistant Inspector-General of Police, Zone 9 Umuahia, Mr. Saac Akinmoyede on Tuesday urged police officers in Ebonyi to forestall the rumoured nationwide protest and strike action by some personnel.<\/p>\n

DAILY POST gathered that some police officers who are owed a backlog of salaries have planned a nationwide protest and strike action to demand immediate payment of their entitlements.<\/p>\n

The Assistant Inspector of Police who spoke to journalists in Abakaliki, shortly after a one-day interface with officers in Ebonyi, revealed the preparedness of the IGP, Usman Alkali Baba to offset all backlog of salaries owed to some officers in the country.<\/p>\n

Akinmoyede said: \u201cI\u2019m here in Ebonyi State to lecture officers and men of the command, on their duties, and the need to be loyal and show commitments to their works. To let the officers know that the IGP Usman Alkali Baba is making efforts as regards the general wellbeing and welfare of police officers in the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe strike is a rumour but when rumours are flying so high, then there is a need to clear the air. I\u2019m here in Ebonyi to listen to the officers and men of the command. Yes, they have their challenges as a command. You heard when I said the promise of 20% increase made to them will be fulfilled\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

In a swift reaction, the Commission of Police in the state, Mr. Aliyu Garba said, \u201cwe have assured the IGP that Ebonyi State Police Command will not join the bandwagon in the name of anything called strike.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe will continue to do our best, to the best of our ability in the discharge of our civic responsibilities\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n
