The IGP also stated that no personnel of the Force is authorised to embark on patrols or tactical assignments in mufti.

 

The Force PRO, DCP Frank Mba explained that officers must always appear in their police uniforms or approved tactical gear whenever on
operations.

 

He explained that the IGP’s directives come against the backdrop of findings by the leadership of the Force that a few personnel of the Tactical Squads hide under these guise to perpetrate all forms of
illegality, contrary to the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP), Code of Conduct and Rules of Engagement establishing the squads.

 

Mba stated that “specifically, the IGP has warned the Tactical Squads against the invasion of the privacy of citizens particularly through indiscriminate and unauthorised search of mobile phones, laptops and
other smart devices.

 

They are to concentrate and respond only to cases of armed robbery, kidnapping and other violent crimes when the need arises.

 

The IGP noted that the FSARS and other Police Tactical Squads remain a critical component of the Force in confronting prevailing and emerging violent crimes in the country.

 

He however condemned every act of unprofessionalism, abuse of human rights and high-handedness by some personnel of the Squads.

 

He has therefore ordered the X-Squad and the Monitoring Unit to embark on immediate and massive nationwide monitoring of activities of Tactical Squads and other police officers on the road.

 

They are to ensure prompt arrest, investigation and prosecution of all erring police officers who violate these directives and other extant regulations of the Force.

 

The IGP has equally warned, that henceforth, the Commissioner of Police in charge of FSARS, Commissioners of Police in charge of State Commands and the FCT as well as their supervisory Zonal Assistant
Inspectors General of Police, will be held liable for any misconduct within their Area of Responsibility (AOR).

 

He therefore charged them to ensure effective supervision and mentoring of the personnel of the Tactical Squads under their jurisdiction.

 

Meanwhile, two operatives of the FSARS and their civilian accomplice operating in Lagos State, Inspr. Sale James, Inspr. Monday Uchiola and Okechukwu Ogbonna, have been arrested by the Lagos State Police Command, for acts of professional misconduct including extortion and intimidation of innocent citizens.

 

The operational vehicle of the men has also been impounded and disciplinary procedure has already commenced against the defaulters.

Mba stated that the IGP reaffirmed his commitment to bequeathing to Nigerians, a reformed Police Force that is accountable, responsible and ever ready to defend and uphold the rights of the citizens while discharging its duties of keeping the people safe and secure.

 

He enjoined the citizens not to allow the misconduct by a few personnel of the Force to negatively impact on their belief, confidence and trust in the Police.
