The police command in Abia has announced the dismissal of an inspector, Kufere Moses, with force number AP/NO 338736, effective from February 21.

The command’s spokeswoman, Maureen Chinaka, disclosed this in a statement on Wednesday night.

Ms Chinaka said the inspector was previously assigned as a security guard at UBA Bank in Aba before his dismissal.

“He has also been de-kitted, and all police accoutrements have been retrieved from him.

“This action follows administrative disciplinary measures taken against him by the command for discreditable conduct and offences against discipline,” the police said.

Police commissioner Danladi Isa reaffirmed the command’s zero tolerance for unprofessional conduct.

“Under his leadership, the command remains committed to the inspector general of police’s vision of ensuring a professionally competent, service-driven, rule-of-law-compliant, and people-friendly police force,” the statement added.
