At the conference, which held at POWA Hall, Oduduwa, Ikeja, the Commissioner of Police emphasised on the IGP’s agenda, which included immediate dismantling of road blocks across the federation, immediate withdrawal of officers attached to private citizens and deduction of court-awarded damages from the salary of any officer found to have abused human rights.
In attendance at the conference were the management team of the command, 14 Area Commanders, 110 Divisional Police Officers, Commanders of Police Mobile Force in Lagos and the Heads of Departments in the command.
In a statement by the police image-maker in the state, CSP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, Odumosu was said to have warned against any act of lawlessness, professional misconduct, misuse of power, indecent dressing, gross violation of human rights, and any act unbecoming of an officer of the Nigeria Police Force.
According to the PPRO, the police boss urged officers and men of the command to discharge their duties and act in accordance with the vision statement of the acting IGP, as the command would not condone any act at variance with the Nigeria’s police chief’s agenda for repositioning the Police Force.
