To address this, he outlined a nationwide refreshment training initiative focusing on investigation, practical skills, and physical training.<\/p>\n<p>Highlighting additional challenges, Biar noted a shortage of weapons and uniforms across the country\u2019s police force. He also mentioned the presence of older personnel within the police ranks. Biar detailed plans to start training one thousand police officers in each state, emphasizing that participants must be below 50 years old and undergo a thorough medical checkup.<\/p>\n<p>The official clarified that individuals of old age will be assigned to a department called Social Welfare, where they will receive their salaries. Emphasizing the importance of supporting elderly individuals, he stated, \u201cWe will establish a Social Welfare department for those who are unable to work but still deserve their salaries.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the deployment of the previously graduated unified police from last year, General Biar mentioned that they will be deployed but require further training and the unification of high-ranking officers. He highlighted the need for comprehensive training, particularly for those who were part of integrated forces.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThose from integrated forces are now part of the police, and we plan to deploy them. However, it&#8217;s crucial to note that their previous training lacked professionalism, focusing mainly on attention rather than the role of law,\u201d explained Biar. He emphasized that police training specifically centers around the rule of law, distinguishing it from military training.<\/p>\n<p>General Biar revealed that individuals trained in Rajab are awaiting deployment, with a report submitted to the national minister, pending budget approval for transport and other essential needs.<\/p>\n<p>Concluding his speech, the official expressed his commitment to transforming the national police into a professional force. The Inspector General of Police (IGP) has been touring Bahr el Ghazal states and is set to conclude his official visit in Lakes state after departing from Wau this morning.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/south-sudan\">South-Sudan<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Sudan.
